Huh? Not in my case..: GigabitEthernet0/0.4 is up, line protocol is up .. Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5 .. > doesnt go down for any reason (like bridged ethernet link with switches in > the middle), you can sit down, take a coffee, smoke a cig, whatever, until I've actually reduced timers in exactly such a setup (GE-ring based on switches, with VLANs forming pseudo-WAN links for attached routers). In retrospect, I wouldn't do this again though, would probably rather try to tweak STP to converge faster than to touch OSPF timers (reason: in DOS situations where links get saturated, having lower timers is a bitch...). I'm currently at hello=5 on this ring. Cheers, Markus ---------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Maillist-Archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/swinog%40swinog.ch/
