Description
Using the isis timer holding-multiplier command, you can configure the number of
invalid Hello messages for the interface. Using the undo isis timer holding-multiplier
command, you can restore the default settings.
The default number of invalid Hello messages is 3.
ISIS protocol maintains the adjacency between the adjacent routers by sending and
receiving Hello messages. If the local router does not receive a Hello message from the
peer within an interval, it regards the neighbor unavailable. The interval is the ISIS
holddown time.
In ISIS, the holddown time can be regulated by configuring the number of invalid Hello
messages. That is, the local router regards its neighbor unavailable if it has not
received the specific number of Hello messages consecutively.
If you do not specify Level-1 or Level-2 in the command, the system applies the number
of invalid Hello messages to Level-1 and Level-2.
For the related command, see isis timer hello.
Example
# Set the number of invalid Hello messages to 5 on Vlan-interface 10.
[Quidway] interface Vlan-interface 10
