intervals, they cannot become neighbors.
■
Rtr Pri: Router priority. A value of 0 means the router cannot become the
DR/BDR.
■
RouterDeadInterval: Time before declaring a silent router down. If two routers
have different time values, they cannot become neighbors.
■

DD packet
Two routers exchange database description (DD) packets describing their LSDBs for
database synchronization, contents in DD packets including the header of each
LSA (uniquely representing a LSA). The LSA header occupies small part of an LSA
to reduce traffic between routers. The recipient checks whether the LSA is
available using the LSA header.
