Enables reload delay on a physical, port-channel, or loopback interface.
No interface level reload-delay is enabled.
Privileged EXEC mode
If a node is reloaded and the traffic flow is directed to an interface before it is operational, the traffic is dropped. Setting the reload-delay timer allows the interface to become fully operational before traffic is routed to it.
Use the reload-delay enable command to enable reload-delay on an interface. This is a required configuration; if reload-delay enable is not set at the interface, a configuration error is raised. By default, interface level settings override global settings.
The reload-delay time on an interface is optional. If there is no delay-time set at the interface level, the global setting is used. If no delay-time is set either on the interface or globally, the configuration is ignored.
The following example configures a reload-delay time of 120 seconds on a port-channel.
device(config)# interface port-channel 10
device(config-Port-channel)# reload-delay enable 120
The following example removes a reload-delay time from a port-channel.
device(config)# interface port-channel 10
device(config-Port-channel)# no reload-delay enable
