FSPF Global Configuration
By default, FSPF is enabled on switches in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family.
Some FSPF features can be globally configured in each VSAN. By configuring a feature for the entire
VSAN, you do not have to specify the VSAN number for every command. This global configuration
feature also reduces the chance of typing errors or other minor configuration errors.
FSPF is enabled by default. Generally, you do not need to configure these advanced features.
Note
Caution
The default for the backbone region is 0 (zero). You do not need to change this setting unless your region
is different from the default. If you are operating with other vendors using the backbone region, you can
change this default to be compatible with those settings.

About SPF Computational Hold Times
The SPF computational hold time sets the minimum time between two consecutive SPF computations
on the VSAN. Setting this to a small value means that FSPF reacts faster to any fabric changes by
recomputing paths on the VSAN. A small SPF computational hold time uses more switch CPU time.
About Link State Record Defaults
Each time a new switch enters the fabric, a link state record (LSR) is sent to the neighboring switches,
and then flooded throughout the fabric.
