Use this command to configure the minimum time that must elapse between advertisements of the same route to a given neighbor. RFC 4271 recommends the interval for internal peers be shorter than the interval for external peers to enable fast convergence within an autonomous system. This value does not limit the rate of route selection, only the rate of route advertisement. If BGP changes the route to a destination multiple times while waiting for the advertisement interval to expire, only the final result is advertised to the neighbor.
LCOS SX BGP enforces the advertisement interval by limiting how often phase 3 of the decision process can run for each update group. The interval applies to withdrawals as well as active advertisements.
