RE: ospf timers

Hi,

Ip ospf resync-timeout is used in the HA NSF (non stop forwarding scenario)

When an OSPF NSF-aware router performs a switchover to the standby processor it send a special hello packet to its adjacent
neighbours asking help in resynchronising database with no state change (stateful switchover)

The adjacent router maintains the resync-timeout = dead interval = 40 secs. If the resync is not done in that time it brings down
the adjacency.

The resync timer can be made independent of the dead interval time.

Karim,

For the first scenario - I would use two floating static and dialer-map statements.

For the second scenario, I would use dialer-watch. Dialer-watch will not kick in until ALL "watched" routes are lost - so it would
not work for your first scenario.

From Cisco IOS Dial Technologies Configuration Guide, Release 12.3:

"Monitoring the watched routes is done in the following sequence:

1. Whenever a watched route is deleted, Dialer Watch checks whether there is at least one valid route for any of the defined watched
IP addresses.

2. If no valid route exists, the primary line is considered down and unusable.

3. If a valid route exists for at least one of the defined IP addresses and if the route is pointing to an interface other than the
backup interface configured for Dialer Watch, the primary link is considered up.

4. If the primary link goes down, Dialer Watch is immediately notified by the routing protocol and the secondary link is brought up.

5. Once the secondary link is up, at the expiration of each idle timeout, the primary link is rechecked.

6. If the primary link remains down, the idle timer is indefinitely reset.

7. If the primary link is up, the secondary backup link is disconnected. Additionally, you can set a disable timer to create a delay
for the secondary link to disconnect, after the primary link is reestablished. "

HTH,
JDC

Hi all,

Would like to know the difference between the following 2 scenarios:
- When asked to initiate a call when losing reachability to any of 2 given routes to watch.

I believe that I need to create 2 dialer-maps statement (if using legacy
DDR) plus dialer watch-group (in either legacy or dailer interfaces). Whenever the reachability lost to any of the two routes, a
call will be initiated.

- I asked not to initiate a call only if reachability lost to both routes, what will be the solution ????

Regards,
Karim.
