Passive
Place the local router in Passive mode.
Polling Timer
Specifies the time interval, in seconds, between EGP Poll commands.
Default: 120 (seconds)
Options
120, 150, 180, 210, 240, 270, 300, 330, 360, 390, 420, 450, 480 (seconds)
Poll Interval
Allows the router to send additional Hello packets at a reduced rate even though no
Hello packets were received for more than the Dead Interval (seconds).
Default: 20
Options
20, 40, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 200 (seconds)
Precedence
Assigns a priority value for filtering a packet. The higher the precedence, the greater
the priority.
Default: 1
You can construct up to 31 filters per IP interface. The Precedence value is used
when an incoming IP packet meets multiple filter rules. In such an instance, the filter
with the highest priority is applied to the frame. In the event of two filters with equal
precedence, the first-configured filter takes precedence.
Preference
Assigns a weighted value used by the TCP/IP router to select from multiple routes to
a single destination.
Default: 16
Range 1 to 18
The TCP/IP router maintains a routing pool containing information supplied by up to
three routing protocols (RIP, EGP, OSPF) in addition to manually configured static
routes. Consequently, the routing pool can contain multiple routes to the same
destination. By default, the TCP/IP router uses manually configured static and/or
default routes in preference to routes gathered by protocol exchanges.
Preference contains a numeric value within the range from 0 to 16—the higher the
value, the greater the preference of the route. That is, routes with higher values are
selected (used for routing) by the TCP/IP router in preference to routes with lower
values.
