Syntax

multiplier value
no multiplier

Command Default

Multiplier default value is 5.

Parameters

Specifies a multiplier value to use. Valid values range from 3 through 10.

Protocol UDLD configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

When the device at one end is an Extreme Networks IP product, the timeout interval is the product of the "hello" time interval at the other end and the "multiplier" value.

When the UDLD protocol times out waiting for UDLD PDUs, it will block the port.

Enter no multiplier to return to the default setting.

Examples

To set the multiplier to 8:

device# configure terminal
device(config)# protocol udld
device(config-udld)# multiplier 8
