Configuring the IP Static Route Adjustment Interval

---

The ip route static adjust-time command allows you to configure the IP static route adjustment timer to any interval from 1 to 60 seconds. The benefit of reducing the timer from the 60-second default value is to increase the convergence when static routes are used. However, reducing the interval can be CPU-intensive if the value is set very low and you have a large number of static routes configured.

Command Reference

This section documents the new ip route static adjust-time command.

ip route static adjust-time

To change the time interval for IP static route adjustments during convergence, use the ip route static adjust-time command in global configuration mode. To reinstate the default adjustment time of 60 seconds, use the no form of this command.

ip route static adjust-time seconds

no ip route static adjust-time seconds

Syntax Description

seconds

Time of delay, in seconds, for convergence time during which the background process that monitors next-hop reachability is performed. The delay in convergence occurs when the route that covers the next-hop is removed. The range is from 1 to 60. The default is 60.

Defaults

seconds: 60

Command Modes

Global configuration

Command History

Release	Modification
12.0(29)S	This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

By default, static route adjustments are made every 60 seconds. To adjust the timer to any interval from 1 to 60 seconds, enter the ip route static adjust-time command.

The benefit of reducing the timer from the 60 second default value is to increase the convergence when static routes are used. However, reducing the interval can be CPU intensive if the value is set very low and you have a large number of static routes configured.

Examples

In the following example, the adjustment time for static routes has been changed from the default 60 seconds to 30 seconds:

Router(config)# ip route static adjust-time 30

To remove the 30-second adjust time interval and reinstate the default 60-second value, enter the no ip static adjust-time command:

Router(config)# no ip route static adjust-time 30
