  Note: 
z  Default Hello and Dead timer values will be restored once the network type is 
changed. 
z  Do not set an LSA retransmission interval that is too short. Otherwise, 
unnecessary retransmission will occur. LSA retransmission interval must be 
greater than the round trip time of a packet between two routers.

By default, the LSA 
transmission delay is 
one second.
 
 
  Note: 
The transmission of OSPF packets on a link also takes time. Therefore, a 
transmission delay should be added to the aging time of LSAs before the LSAs are 
transmitted. For a low-speed link, pay close attention on this configuration.  
 
4.7.4  Configuring the SPF Calculation Interval 
Whenever the LSDB of OSPF is changed, the shortest paths need to be recalculated. 
When the network changes frequently, calculating the shortest paths immediately 
after LSDB changes will consume enormous resources and affect the operation 
efficiency of the router. By adjusting the minimum SPF calculation interval, you can 
lighten the negative affection caused by frequent network changes.
