Modifying SPF timers

The Shortest Path First (SPF) delay and hold time can be modified.

1. Enter the configure terminal command to access global configuration mode.
   

   device# configure terminal

2. Enter the ipv6 router ospf command to enter OSPFv3 router configuration mode and enable OSPFv3 globally.
   

   device(config)# ipv6 router ospf

3. Enter the timers command with the spf parameter.
   

   device(config-ipv6-router-ospf-vrf-default-vrf)# timers spf 1 5

   The SPF delay is changed to 1 second and the SPF hold time is changed to 5 seconds.

device(config)# ipv6 router ospf 
device(config-ipv6-router-ospf-vrf-default-vrf)# timers spf 1 5
