ip ospf retransmit-interval
Use this command to specify the time between link-state advertisement (LSA) retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to the interface.
After sending an LSA to a neighbor, the router keeps the LSA until it receives an acknowledgement. If the router does not receive an acknowledgement during the retransmit interval, it retransmits the LSA. Set the retransmission interval value conservatively to avoid needless retransmission. The interval should be greater than the expected round-trip delay between two routers.
Use the no parameter with this command to return to the default value.
