Figure 39: OSPFv3 configured parameters
Interface: The physical network interface on which OSPFv3 is Enabled/Disabled.
Status: This column displays the Enable/Disable state of OSPFv3 for a particular interface.
Priority: Helps to determine the OSPFv3 designated router for a network. The router with the highest
priority will be more eligible to become Designated Router. Setting the value to 0, makes the router
ineligible to become Designated Router. The default value is 1.Lower Value means higher priority.
HelloInterval: The number of seconds for HelloInterval timer value. Setting this value, Hello packet
will be sent every timer value seconds on the specified interface. This value must be the same for all
routers attached to a common network. The default value is 10 seconds.
DeadInterval: The number of seconds that a device’s hello packets must not have been seen before its
neighbors declare the OSPF router down. This value must be the same for all routers attached to a
common network. The default value is 40 seconds.
OSPF requires these intervals to be exactly the same between two neighbors. If any of these intervals
are different, these routers will not become neighbors on a particular segment
Cost: The cost of sending a packet on an OSPFv3 interface.
