In FTOS Version, 7.5.1.0 use
show ip ospf
to confirm that RFC-2328 compliant OSPF flooding is enabled,
as shown below.

OSPF ACK Packing
The OSPF ACK Packing feature bundles multiple LS acknowledgements in a single packet, significantly
reducing the number of ACK packets transmitted when the number of LSAs increases. This feature also
enhances network utilization and reduces the number of small ACK packets sent to a neighboring router.
OSPF ACK packing is enabled by default, and non-configurable.
OSPF Adjacency with Cisco Routers
To establish an OSPF adjacency between Force 10 and Cisco routers, the hello interval and dead interval
must be the same on both routers. In FTOS the OSPF dead interval value is, by default, set to 40 seconds,
and is independent of the OSPF hello interval. Configuring a hello interval does not change the dead
interval in FTOS.
In contrast, the OSPF dead interval on a Cisco router is, by default, four times as
long as the hello interval. Changing the hello interval on the Cisco router automatically changes
the dead interval as well.
