Adding additional parameters

Brocade(config)# router ospf vrf blue

Brocade(config-ospf-router)# graceful-restart

Syntax: [no] graceful-restart

Configuring OSPF Graceful Restart time per VRF
Use the following command to specify the maximum amount of time advertised to an OSPF
neighbor router to maintain routes from and forward traffic to a restarting router.

Brocade(config) router ospf vrf blue

Brocade(config-ospf-router)# graceful-restart restart-time 120

Syntax: [no] graceful-restart restart-time seconds

The seconds variable sets the maximum restart wait time advertised to OSPF neighbors of the VRF.

Possible values are 10 - 1200 seconds.

The default value is 60 seconds.

Disabling OSPF Graceful Restart helper mode per VRF
You can prevent your router from participating in OSPF Graceful Restart with VRF neighbors by
using the following command.

Brocade(config) router ospf vrf blue

Brocade(config-ospf-router)# graceful-restart helper-disable

Syntax: [no] graceful-restart helper-disable

This command disables OSPF Graceful Restart helper mode.

The default behavior is to help the restarting neighbors.

For information about how to display OSPF Graceful Restart Information, refer to

“Displaying an

OSPF Graceful Restart information”

on page 236.

Configuring OSPF router advertisement

You can configure OSPF router advertisement in the router ospf mode or router ospf vrf mode as
shown in the following examples.

Brocade(config)# router ospf

Brocade(config-ospf-router)# max-metric router-lsa all-vrfs on-startup 30 link

all

Brocade(config)# router ospf vrf blue

Brocade(config-ospf-router)# max-metric router-lsa on-startup 30 link all

Syntax: [no] max-metric router-lsa [all-vrfs] [on-startup { time | wait-for-bgp}] [summary-lsa

metric-value] [external-lsa metric-value] [te-lsa metric-value] [all-lsas] [link {ptp | stub |
transit | all }]

The all-vrfs parameter specifies that the command will be applied to all VRF instances of OSPFv2.
Note: this command is supported only for VRFs that are already configured when the max-metric
router-lsa all-vrfs command is issued. Any new OSPF instance configured after the max-metric
configuration is completed requires that the max-metric command be configured again to take in
the new OSPF instance.
