112 CHAPTER 5: IP ROUTING PROTOCOL OPERATION
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view..
If the level is not specified, the default setting is, Level-1 routing cost.
The value parameter is configured according to the link state of the Interface.
By default, the routing cost of IS-IS on an interface is 10.
Setting the Hello Packet Broadcast Interval
The IS-IS periodically sends Hello packets from the Interface, and the routers
maintain adjacency through the transmission and receipt of Hello packets The
Hello packet interval can be modified.
Usually, on broadcast links, there exist level-1 and level-2 hello packets. If you
want a different hello interval for Level-1 and Level-2, you must set the intervals
separately. However, there are two exceptions. One exception is when there is no
level separation in the link, parameters of level-1 and level-2 need not be specified
in the command.
The other exception is that attributes of the packets do not need to be set if hello
packets are not separated according to level-1 and level-2 on the p2p links.
Perform the following configurations in VLAN interface view..
By default, Hello packets are transmitted on an interface every 10 seconds.
Setting the CSNP Packet Broadcast Interval
The CSNP packet is transmitted by the DIS over the broadcast network to
synchronize the link state database (LSDB). The CSNP packet is regularly broadcast
over the broadcast network at an interval, which can be set by users.
Perform the following configuration in VLAN interface view.
