NEIGHBOR

Syntax

INTERVAL|PRIORITY

no neighbor A.B.C.D (COST <1-65535>)

POLL-

INTERVAL|PRIORITY

Parameters

A.B.C.D

Specifies an IP address of a neighboring router.

COST

Specifies the link-state metric to this neighbor. Enter a
value between 1 and 65,535. This is an optional
parameter.

POLL-INTERVAL Specifies the dead neighbor polling interval in

seconds. Enter a value between 1 and 65,535. Allied
Telesis recommends setting this value much higher
than the hello interval. The default value is 120
seconds.

PRIORITY

Specifies the 8-bit number indicating the router

priority value of the non-broadcast neighbor
associated with the specified IP address. Enter a
value between 0 and 255. This keyword does not
apply to point-to-multipoint interfaces. The default
value is 0.

Description

Use the NEIGHBOR command to configure OSPF routers interconnecting
to NMBA networks.

To configure a neighbor on an NBMA network manually, use the
NEIGHBOR command and include one neighbor entry for each known
nonbroadcast network neighbor. Configure the neighbor address on the
primary address of the interface.

The poll interval is the reduced rate at which routers continue to send hello
packets when a neighboring router has become inactive. Set the poll
interval to be much larger than hello interval.

Use the no form of the command to remove a configuration.
