+ Enable or disable periodic CSNPs on a point-to-point circuit. When
+ disabled, a complete set of CSNPs is sent only when an adjacency comes
+ up, as described in :rfc:`5303`, instead of every ``isis csnp-interval``.
+ This saves bandwidth, at the cost of the periodic database check.
+ Periodic CSNPs are enabled by default. While they are disabled,
+ ``isis csnp-interval`` is not used on point-to-point circuits, and setting
+ a CSNP interval other than the default prints a warning. On a broadcast
+ circuit the DIS keeps sending periodic CSNPs: the setting has no effect
+ there, and setting it prints a warning.
