Motorola BSR 2000 manual Graceful-restart-period

Release 1.0 RIP Commands

graceful-restart-period

The graceful-restart-periodcommand enables RIP graceful restart. Graceful restart allows a RIP router to stay on the forwarding path even as its RIP software is being restarted. As the graceful restart procedure executes, the RIP routing table is updated with recalculated route entries that replace older entries in the routng table which are marked with a “replicated” flag. RIP graceful restart has a configurable time period (in seconds) that must elapse before routing table updates are completed and entries with the “replicated” flag are flushed from the routing table and the Fast Path database. The no graceful-restart-periodcommand disables RIP graceful restart.
