Configures the router as a graceful OSPF restart router.
| none | Do not act as a graceful OSPF restart router. |
| planned | Only act as a graceful OSPF restart router for planned restarts. |
| unplanned | Only act as a graceful OSPF restart router for unplanned restarts. |
| both | Act as a graceful OSPF restart router for both planned and unplanned restarts. |
The default is none.
This command configures the router as a graceful OSPF router. When configured for planned restarts, it will advertise Grace-LSAs before restarting (for example, during an upgrade of the OSPF module). When configured for unplanned restarts, it will advertise Grace-LSAs after restarting but before sending any Hellos. When configured for both, the router will advertise restarting regardless of whether the restart was planned or unplanned.
The following command configures a router to perform graceful OSPF restarts only for planned restarts:
configure ospf restart planned
This command was first available in ExtremeXOS 11.3.
