Usage Guidelines
• Use the no form of this command to reset the probe-message timer to the default value. Note that it is 
not necessary to specify the probe-message interval to reset it.
• The UDLD protocol must be enabled before using this command.
• Configure probe-advertisement timer with values varying in a range of 12-18 seconds for better 
convergence time and to avoid burst of probe advertisements.
