Specifying the interval for sending IS-IS hello packets

If a neighbor does not receive any hello packets from the router within the advertised hold time, it

considers the router down and recalculates the routes. The hold time is the hello multiplier multiplied by

the hello interval.
To specify the interval for sending hello packets:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

N/A

3.

Specify the interval for
sending hello packets.

isis timer hello seconds [ level-1 |
level-2 ]

The default setting is 10 seconds.
The interval between hello packets

sent by the DIS is 1/3 the hello
interval set with the isis timer hello

command.

Specifying the IS-IS hello multiplier

The hello multiplier is the number of hello packets a neighbor must miss before it declares that the router

is down.
If a neighbor receives no hello packets from the router within the advertised hold time, it considers the
router down and recalculates the routes. The hold time is the hello multiplier multiplied by the hello

interval.
On a broadcast link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised separately. You must set a hello

multiplier for each level.
On a P2P link, Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are advertised in P2P hello packets. You do not need to

specify Level-1 or Level-2.
