ip ospf dead-interval
This command sets the OSPF dead interval for the specified interface. The value for
<seconds> is a valid positive integer, which represents 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 length of time must be the same for all routers attached to a
common network. This value should be some multiple of the Hello Interval (i.e. 4). Valid
values range in seconds from 1 to 2147483647.

This command sets the OSPF hello interval for the specified interface. The value for seconds
is a valid positive integer, which represents the length of time in seconds. The value for the
length of time must be the same for all routers attached to a network. Valid values range from
1 to 65535.

Use this command to configure OSPF to treat an interface as a point-to-point rather than
broadcast interface. The broadcast option sets the OSPF network type to broadcast. The
point-to-point option sets the OSPF network type to point-to-point. OSPF treats
interfaces as broadcast interfaces by default. (Loopback interfaces have a special loopback
network type, which cannot be changed.) When there are only two routers on the network,
OSPF can operate more efficiently by treating the network as a point-to-point network. For
