timer

Set the hello interval or dead interval for the Ring control packets.

Syntax

timer {hello-interval milliseconds}| {dead-interval milliseconds}

To remove the timer, use the no timer {hello-interval [ milliseconds]}| {dead-interval milliseconds} command.

Parameters

hello-interval milliseconds	Enter the keyword `hello-interval` then the time, in milliseconds, to set the hello interval of the control packets. The milliseconds must be entered in increments of 50 millisecond; for example, 50, 100, 150, and so on. If an invalid value is entered, an error message is generated. The range is from 50 to 2000 ms. Default: 500 ms.
dead-interval milliseconds	Enter the keyword `dead-interval` then the time, in milliseconds, to set the dead interval of the control packets. The range is from 50 to 6000 ms. Default: 1500 ms. NOTE: The configured dead interval must be at least three times the hello interval.

Defaults

500 ms for hello-interval milliseconds
1500 ms for dead-interval milliseconds
