neighbor peer-dampening

Enables peer-dampening for a single neighbor.

Syntax

neighbor { x.x.x.x | A:B::C:D } peer-dampening [ delay-hold 0-65535 | penalty 1-65535 | max-penalty 1-65535 | stability-interval 0-65535 ]
no neighbor { x.x.x.x | A:B::C:D } peer-dampening [ delay-hold | penalty | max-penalty | stability-interval ]

Parameters

{ x.x.x.x | A:B::C:D }
The IP address of the neighbor device in IPv4 or IPv6 format.
delay-hold 0-65535
The amount of time, in seconds, that a session remains in the idle-state after the first peer flap event is received. During this time, all route advertisements from this peer are ignored. The default value is zero (0) seconds.
penalty 1-65535
The amount of time, in seconds, which gets added to idle-hold timer every time a peer flap event is received. The default value is 300 seconds.
max-penalty 1-65535
The maximum amount of time, in seconds, that a session remains in the idle- state after it has experienced repeated instability. The default value is 3600 seconds.
stability-interval 0-65535
The interval of time, in seconds, the session must be error-free in order to consider it to be stable. The default value is 1800 seconds.
