Usage
The OSPFv3 dead interval is the length of time in seconds that a router's Hello packets have not
been seen before its neighbor routers declare that the router is down. The value for the dead
interval must be the same for all routers attached to a common network, and should be some
multiple of the hello interval.
Use the no form of this command to return the dead interval to the default value of 40 seconds.
Example
This example sets the dead interval for router interface VLAN 7 to 60 seconds.
G3(su)->router(Config)# interface vlan 7
G3(su)->router(Config-if(Vlan 7))# ipv6 ospf dead-interval 60
ipv6 ospf hello-interval
This command sets the OSPFv3 hello interval for the router interface.
Syntax
ipv6 ospf hello-interval seconds
no ipv6 ospf hello-interval seconds
Parameters
seconds
Defaults
The default hello interval is 10 seconds.
Mode
Router interface configuration: G3(su)‐>router(Config‐if(Vlan 1))#
Usage
Use this command to specify the interval between hello packets that OSPFv3 sends on the
interface being configured. The shorter the hello interval, the faster topological changes will be
detected, but more routing traffic will ensue. The hello interval must be the same for all routers
attached to a common network.
Use the no form of this command to return the hello interval to the default value of 10 seconds.
Example
This example sets the hello interval for router interface VLAN 7 to 20 seconds.
G3(su)->router(Config)# interface vlan 7
G3(su)->router(Config-if(Vlan 7))# ipv6 ospf hello-interval 20
Specifies the OSPFv3 hello interval in seconds. The value can range
from 1 to 65535 seconds.
