Sets the global MVRP join, leave and leave-all timers values on all MVRP-enabled interfaces except the interfaces configured with the mvrp timer command in interface configuration mode.
The join timer default setting is 20 centiseconds (cs).
The leave timer default setting is 100 cs.
The leave-all timer default setting is 1000 cs.
MVRP configuration mode
MVRP is supported only on devices based on the DNX chipset family. For a list of such devices, see "Supported Hardware".
The no form of the command resets the default settings globally and on interfaces that are not configured with the mvrp timer command in interface configuration mode.
This command requires that you configure the timer values in the specified order and you must configure all values.
When the network radius is large or the expected system load is higher normally, since the default timer values are aggressive, Extreme recommends that you change the timer values to higher numbers to reduce the MVRP message exchanges and the load of the system.
The configured timer settings on the individual interfaces override the global timer configuration.
The join timer is not run periodically but is triggered by the MVRP events or state changes. However, the leave-all timer is periodic; required for garbage collection purposes.
The following example configures the global MVRP timer settings.
device# configure terminal device(config)# protocol mvrp device(config-mvrp)# timer join 40 leave 200 leave-all 2000 device(config-mvrp)#
