The hellointerval must be the same for all routing devices on a shared logical IP network.Options seconds—Time between hello packets, in seconds.Range: 1 through 255 secondsDefault: 10 seconds; 120 seconds (nonbroadcast networks)Required PrivilegeLevelrouting—To view this statement in the configuration.routing-control—To add this statement to the configuration.RelatedDocumentation• dead-interval on page 1518• Configuring OSPF Timers1559Chapter 73: Configuration Statements for Layer 3 Protocols
