Configuring OSPF Network Optimization
You can optimize your OSPF network in the following ways:
z Change OSPF packet timers to adjust the OSPF network convergence speed and network load.
On low speed links, you need to consider the delay time for sending LSAs on interfaces.
z Change the interval for SPF calculation to reduce resource consumption caused by frequent
network changes.
z Configure OSPF authentication to meet high security requirements of some mission-critical
networks.
z Configure OSPF network management functions, such as binding OSPF MIB with a process,
sending trap information and collecting log information.
Prerequisites
Before configuring OSPF network optimization, you have configured:
z IP addresses for interfaces;
z OSPF basic functions.
Configuring OSPF Packet Timers
You can configure the following timers on OSPF interfaces as needed:
z Hello timer: Interval for sending hello packets. It must be identical on OSPF neighbors. The longer
the interval, the lower convergence speed and smaller network load.
z Poll timer: Interval for sending hello packets to the neighbor that is down on the NBMA network.
z Dead timer: Interval within which if the interface receives no hello packet from the neighbor, it
declares the neighbor is down.
z LSA retransmission timer: Interval within which if the interface receives no acknowledgement
packets after sending a LSA to the neighbor, it will retransmit the LSA.
Follow these steps to configure timers for OSPF packets:
