									 IS-IS Partial SPF Optimizations  | 
								
									 This parameter can contain one of the following values: 
  |

									 These values are displayed individually for IS-IS levels 1 and 2.  | 
							
| 
									 max-wait  | 
								
									 The maximum time gap that occurs between running of SPF calculations. It is the value configured as the spf-max-wait variable in thespf-interval command.  | 
							
| 
									 Init-wait  | 
								
									 The initial time gap between an SPF event and the first running of SPF. This value reflects the spf-initial-time variable that is configured using the spf-interval command.  | 
							
| 
									 Second-wait  | 
								
									 The interval between the first running of SPF and the first recalculation of the SPF tree. If this optional value is configured, it is doubled with each recalculation of the SPF tree until the value is equal to the max-wait value This value reflects the spf-second-wait variable that is configured using the spf-interval command.  | 
							
| 
									 SPF run status.  |

  | 
							
| 
									 max-wait  | 
								
									 The maximum time gap that occurs between running of PSPF calculations. It is the value configured as the max-wait value in thepartial-spf-interval command.  | 
							
| 
									 Init-wait  | 
								
									 The initial time gap between the wait time after an LSP change until the first PSPF calculation. This value reflects the initial-wait variable that is configured using the partial-spf-interval command.  | 
							
| 
									 Second-wait  | 
								
									 The wait time between the first and second PSPF calculations. If this optional value is configured, it is doubled with each PSPF recalculation until the value is equal to the max-wait value This value reflects the second-wait variable that is configured using the partial-spf-interval command.  |

| 
									 refresh-interval  | 
								
									 The maximum number of seconds that a device waits between sending updated LSPs to its IS-IS neighbors. The default value is 1 sec.  | 
							
| 
									 gen-interval  | 
								
									 The minimum number of seconds that a device waits between sending updated LSPs to its IS-IS neighbors. The default value is 10 sec.  | 
							
| 
									 retransmit-interval  | 
								
									 The amount of time the device waits before it retransmits LSPs. The default value is 5 sec.  | 
							
| 
									 lsp-interval  | 
								
									 The rate of transmission (in milliseconds) of the LSPs. The default rate is 33 ms.  |
