OSPF Graceful Restart Commands
The OSPF protocol can be configured to participate in the checkpointing service, so that 
these protocols can execute a graceful restart” when the management unit fails. In a graceful 
restart, the hardware to continues forwarding IPv4 packets using OSPF routes while a 
backup switch takes over management unit responsibility 
Graceful restart uses the concept of helpful neighbors. A fully adjacent router enters helper 
mode when it receives a link state announcement (LSA) from the restarting management unit 
indicating its intention of performing a graceful restart. In helper mode, a switch continues to 
advertise to the rest of the network that they have full adjacencies with the restarting router, 
thereby avoiding announcement of a topology change and the potential for flooding of LSAs 
and shortest-path-first (SPF) runs (which determine OSPF routes). Helpful neighbors 
continue to forward packets through the restarting router. The restarting router relearns the 
network topology from its helpful neighbors.
Graceful restart can be enabled for either planned or unplanned restarts, or both. A planned 
restart is initiated by the operator through the initiate failover command. The 
operator may initiate a failover in order to take the management unit out of service (for 
example, to address a partial hardware failure), to correct faulty system behavior which 
cannot be corrected through less severe management actions, or other reasons. An 
unplanned restart is an unexpected failover caused by a fatal hardware failure of the 
management unit or a software hang or crash on the management unit.
The following switches support OSPF graceful restart:
M6100
M5300-28G3
M5300-52G3
M5300-28GF3
The following switches support OSPF graceful restart with an L3 license:
