Hi Rui,

It is not a standard. 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.

Hope this helps,
Acee

Subject: [OSPF] Immediate Replying Hello

Hi,

Many OSPF implementations include the Immediate Replying Hello feature, which I believe is not standard.

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
