Using Site Manager
Setting the Hello Interval
The hello interval specifies how often the router sends hello messages on the
interface. By default, OSPF transmits a hello message every 10 seconds.
Each type of network has an optimum hello interval. If the interface is connected
to a broadcast network, Bay Networks suggests you use the default setting -- 10
seconds. Table 7-3
lists the suggested settings for network types supported by
OSPF.
