• Configure a static adjacency for interface S2 that specifies its neighbor --
interface S1 on Router A.
• Set the Router Hello parameter to Disable for both interfaces.
As a result, the routers know about each other’s existence, even though no Hello
messages are exchanged.
If two Level 2 routers reside in different areas, you can reduce both Hello message
traffic and Level 1 topology traffic between the two systems by disabling the
Router Hello parameter and the Level 1 Topology Update parameter for the
connecting interfaces Figure 1-9
. If you disable the Level 1 Topology Update
parameter, you prevent the Nortel Networks router running DECnet from sending
Level 1 topology update packets to other routers.
