Parameter: Retransmit Interval
Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > OSPF > Interfaces
Default: 5 seconds
Options: 1 to 3600 seconds
Function: Indicates the number of seconds between link-state advertisement
retransmissions for adjacencies belonging to this interface. This value is also
used when retransmitting OSPF packets. Although the default value is 5, Bay
Networks suggests the following values for this parameter: for broadcast, 5
seconds; for point-to-point, 10 seconds; for NBMA, 10 seconds; for
point-to-multipoint, 10 seconds.
Instructions: Either accept the default value of 5 seconds or set the retransmit interval to some
slightly higher number for slower-speed serial lines.
MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.3.2.3.5.1.10
Parameter: Hello Interval
Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > OSPF > Interfaces
Default: 10 seconds
Options: 1 to 65,535 seconds
Function: Indicates the number of seconds between the hello packets that the router
sends on the interface. Although the default value is 10 seconds, Bay
Networks suggests the following values for this parameter: for broadcast, 10
seconds; for point-to-point, 15 seconds; for NBMA, 20 seconds; for
point-to-multipoint, 15 seconds.
Instructions: Either accept the default value of 10 seconds or set the hello interval to some
higher number for slower-speed serial lines. This value must be the same for
all routers attached to the same network.
