Route flapping
(unstable route)
Excessive traffic load on internetworks with many routers can
prevent some routers from sending RTMP updates every 10
seconds as they should. Because routers begin to age out routes
after missing two consecutive RTMP updates, the inconsistent
arrival of RTMP updates can result in constant route changes.
1.
Use the
show interfaces exec
command to check the traffic
load. Check the load for each interface.
The following example is output from the
show interfaces
command:
Ethernet0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Lance, address is 0000.0c32.49b1 (bia
0000.0c32.49b1)
Internet address is 192.168.52.26/24
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 10000 Kbit, DLY 1000 usec, rely
255/
255, load 1/255
[...]
The load field displayed in the
show interfaces
command is the
load on the interface as a fraction of 255 (255/255 is completely
saturated), calculated as an exponential average over five
minutes.
