Hi,
It helps, thanks. But the Kou draft (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-kou-ospf-immediately-replying-hello/ ) also mentions two other situations where immediate hellos must be sent: after state changes from “2-Way” or greater down to “Init” (case 2), and after DR election (case 3). Do you know if these cases are also implemented? Thanks.

However, it is a technique used by many implementations to speed adjacency formation when a hello packet is received and the neighbor state is less than two-way. At least one of the implementations with witch with I have been associated would unicast the hello.

The only reference I found is the draft “Update to OSPF Hello procedure, draft-kou-ospf-immediately-replying-hello-02.txt” which has expired. Are vendors following what is written in this draft? Is there a document from any vendor that details this feature? Thanks. Rui Valadas
