Dear Mohammad
Please refer to the below link http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.3/topics/reference/configurati on-statement/optimize-timer-edit-protocols-mpls.html Also please consider the following: The optimize timer is a timer that starts @ a certain time and runs frequently on the period you define, for example if you set the optimize timer to 3600 seconds, it will run for example @ 2:15 pm the next time it will check the best paths will be @ 3:15 pm, and it does not run when there is a change in lsp paths, when it runs it see if there are lsp changes or if there are suboptimal path and returns to network to best paths selection, and it relies on your IGP protocol ospf/isis. Another option would be smart optimize timer, which respond immediately to network changes as below link: https://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos10.0/information-products/topic- collections/config-guide-mpls-applications/mpls-configuring-the-smart-optimi ze-timer.html you need also to take to be cautious when defining the optimize timer interval since it consumes the resources, I would suggest setting it to a value above 1 hour.
