What is it - sleep time (RIP timers) ?
Is it random time from 1 to 5 sec between triggered updates (rfc 1058)?
If yes, why it's so big range in milliseconds 1-4294967295 ?
If it's RANDOM time, why it's configurable ? This time (according to rfc) is
set to random value AFTER each triggerd update.
And why Doyle I page 236 2nd parag from bottom said:
"This command is also used to manipulate RIP timers with the exception of
the SLEEPTIME option" ? (is it just old/outdated)
R1(config)#router rip
R1(config-router)#timers basic ?
<0-4294967295> Interval between updates
R1(config-router)#timers basic 30 ?
<1-4294967295> Invalid
R1(config-router)#timers basic 30 180 ?
<0-4294967295> Holddown
R1(config-router)#timers basic 30 180 180 ?
<1-4294967295> Flush
R1(config-router)#timers basic 30 180 180 240 ?
<1-4294967295> Sleep time, in milliseconds
<cr>
Thanks,
Dmitry
