Manipulating EIGRP Hello and Hold Timers
Lesson 4: EIGRP Timers
The word convergence defines the overall process by which routers notice internetwork topology changes, communicate about those changes, and change their routing tables to contain only the best currently working routes. EIGRP converges very quickly, even with all default settings.
One of the slower components of the EIGRP convergence process relates to the timers that EIGRP neighbors use to recognize that a neighborship has failed. If the interface over which the neighbor is reachable fails, and Cisco IOS changes the interface state to anything other than “up/up,” a router immediately ...
