Interface Default Delay

showint

Hello,

I've tried to google 'Interface Default Delay', but in vain. Please, help me with it.

What are we talking about? Need more contest.

Also, do a search of the brand you and working with then add the '+' sign. Find out more information that way.

never heard of it

It depends of negotiated speed of the interface.

I saw a table where hardware types with default delays next to it in a picture. I tried to google by different key words, but couldn't.

I didn't get you well.

I was searching for interface default delay, and added plus sign, but nothing happened.

I'm talking about eigrp and which interface default delay is used by eigrp in the formula.

The delay of a interface is directly associated with the bandwidth of the interface. a 100 Mbit/s interface would have a delay of 100 microseconds, a 1 Gbit/s interface would have a delay of 10 microseconds. This is just a calculation of how long it would take a packet to move from one end of a cable to another. The actual numbers that EIGRP would use are just theoretical numbers and aren't actually calculated by the router. You can modify these values if you want to, but any modifications won't actually affect the operation of the interface, as bandwidth and delay on a cisco interface only affect routing protocols, and not how fast data is actually moved across a link. The clockrate is what determines how fast information can move across any physical link.

Hope this helps with your question.

10g interface (Nexus 7k):
MTU 9216 bytes, BW 10000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec

1g interface (6500):
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 1000000 Kbit, DLY 10 usec,

100mb interface (same 6500):
MTU 1500 bytes, BW 100000 Kbit, DLY 100 usec


edit: got these info from live production devices.
