8.2.9
Configure interface invalid time of neighbour routers
The dead interval of OSPF neighbor is : in the time interval, if the Hello packet hasn’t received, it is
thought the neighbor is ineffective. dead-interval seconds must be 4 times of Hello-interval seconds, and the
dead-interval must be the same in the same network interface.
Configure it in interface configuration mode :
Configure dead interval of neighbor routers.
ip ospf dead-interval
seconds
Restore the default dead interval
no ip ospf dead-interval
The default dead interval of OSPF neighbor for Point-to-point and broadcast is 40 seconds; The default dead
interval of OSPF neighbor for point-to-multipoint, non-broadcast is 120seconds.
Example :
!Configure the dead interval of interface 3 to be 60seconds
QTECH(config-if-vlanInterface-3)#ip ospf dead-interval 60
Caution : After modifying network type, hello-interval and dead-interval are
restore to the default value.
8.2.10
Configure retransmission LSA time interval of
neighbor router
When a router sending “Link Status Advertisement”
(
LSA
)
, it needs to receive the confirm. If the confirm
hasn’t received in LSA retransmit interval, this LSA will be retransmit. User can configure retransmit-interval value.
Configure it in interface configuration mode :
Configure the retransmit interval of sending LSA between neighbour routers
ip ospf retransmit-interval
seconds
Restore the default value of retransmit interval of sending LSA between neighbour routers
no ip ospf retransmit-interval
By default, the retransmit interval of sending LSA between neighbour routers is 5 seconds.
Example :
!Configure LSA retransmit interval of VLAN interface 3 to be 3 seconds.
QTECH(config-if-vlanInterface-3)#ip ospf retransmit-interval 3
8.2.11
Configure time needed when interface sending link
state update packet
In LSU packet, the aging time of LSA will add a transmit-delay before sending. LSA will be aging (1 more
minute per second) with time in Link Status DateBase (LSDB) of this router but it will not be aging in network
transmission, so it is necessary to add the configured time before sending LSA. This configuration is very important
in network with low speed.
Configure it in interface configuration mode :
Configure the time of sending LSU
ip ospf transmit-delay
seconds
Restore the default LSU time
no ip ospf transmit-delay
By default, the time of sending LSU is 1 second.
Example :
!Configure LSA delay interval of VLAN interface 3 to be 3 seconds.
QTECH(config-if-vlanInterface-3)#ip ospf transmit-delay 3
