enable ripng triggerupdates

enable ripng triggerupdates {vlan vlan-name | tunnel tunnel_name | [vlan | tunnel] all}

Description

Enables the trigger update mechanism. Triggered updates are a mechanism for immediately notifying a router‘s neighbors when the router adds or deletes routes or changes their metric.

Syntax Description

vlan-name Specifies an IPv6 configured VLAN (Virtual LAN).
tunnel_name Specifies an IPv6 tunnel.
all Specifies all interfaces.

Default

Enabled.

Usage Guidelines

Triggered updates occur whenever a router changes the metric for a route and it is required to send an update message immediately, even if it is not yet time for a regular update message to be sent. This will generally result in faster convergence, but may also result in more RIPng (Routing Information Protocol Next Generation)-related traffic.

Example

The following command enables the trigger update mechanism on all IPv6 configured interfaces:

enable ripng triggerupdate
