Setting the DLDP advertisement interval
Setting the DLDP advertisement interval appropriately for your network environment assures that DLDP can detect unidirectional links before network performance deteriorates. Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends keeping the advertisement interval the same across the link partners.
To set the advertisement interval, use the command
dldp interval <1-100>
, specifying a value between 1 and 100 seconds.To reset the advertisement interval to the default value of 5 seconds, use the command
no dldp interval
