ospf hello-interval The ospf hello-interval interface configuration command specifies the interval between hello packets the software sends on an interface. To return to the default time, use the no form of this command. Syntax ospf hello-interval seconds no ospf hello-interval • seconds-Specifies the interval (in seconds). The time value must be the same for all nodes on a specific network. (Range: 1 - 65535) Default Configuration The default hello-interval is 10 seconds. Command Mode IP Interface Configuration User Guidelines This value is advertised in the hello packets. The smaller the hello interval, the faster topological changes are detected, resulting in extra routing traffic. This value must be the same for all routers and access servers on a specific network. Example The following example defines the hello-time of 100 seconds on IP interface 1.100.100.100. Console(config)# interface ip 1.100.100.100 Console(config-ip)# ospf hello-interval 100 ospf dead-interval The ospf dead-interval interface configuration command sets the interval at which hello packets must not be seen before neighbors declare the router down. To return to the default time, use the no form of this command. Syntax ospf dead-interval seconds no ospf dead-interval • seconds-Specifies the interval (in seconds). The time value must be the same for all nodes on the network. (Range: 1- 2147483647) OSPF Commands 247
