Configuring the label withdrawal delay timer

1. In privileged EXEC mode, enter global configuration mode.
   

   device# configure terminal

2. Enable MPLS on the device.
   

   device(config)# router mpls

3. Access LDP configuration mode.
   

   device(config-router-mpls)# ldp

4. Configure the delay timer.
   

   device(config-router-mpls-ldp)# label-withdrawal-delay 100

   In this example, the timer is set to 100 seconds. The default value is 60 seconds.
   If you set the timer to 0 (zero), the label withdrawal delay feature is disabled for subsequent events. Any FEC which has already started the label withdrawal delay timer continues to run the timer and to delay sending its label withdrawal messages upstream.

Example

The following example shows the previous configuration steps.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# router mpls
device(config-router-mpls)# ldp
device(config-router-mpls-ldp)# label-withdrawal-delay 100
