Scenario
Refer to the topology. Your company has decided to connect the main office with three other remote branch offices using point-to-point serial links.
You are required to troubleshoot and resolve OSPF neighbor adjacency issues between the main office and the routers located in the remote branch offices.
Use appropriate show commands to troubleshoot the issues and answer all four questions.
Instructions
An OSPF neighbor adjacency is not formed between R3 in the main office and R5 in the Branch2 office. What is causing the problem?
A. There is an area ID mismatch.
B. There is a PPP authentication issue; a password mismatch.
C. There is an OSPF hello and dead interval mismatch.
D. There is a missing network command in the OSPF process on R5.
Correct Answer: C

Continue checking their connected interfaces with the “show running-config” command:
R3#show running-config<<output omitted>>!interface Serial1/1description **Connected to R5-Branch2 office**ip address 10.10.240.5 255.255.255.252encapsulation pppip ospf hello-interval 50ip ospf 3 area 0!<<output omitted>>

The only difference we can see here is the line “ip ospf hello-interval 50? on R3. This command sets the number of seconds R3 waits before sending the next hello packet out this interface. In this case after configuring this command, R3 will send hello packets to R5 every 50 seconds. But the default value of hello-interval is 10 seconds and R5 is using it. Therefore we can think of a hello interval mismatch problem here. You can verify with the “show ip ospf interface <interface>” command on each router.
R3#sh ip ospf int s1/1Serial1/1 is up, line protocol is upInternet Address 10.10.240.5/30, Area 0Process ID 3, Router ID 192.168.3.3, Network Type POINT_TO_POINT, Cost: 64Enabled by interface config, including secondary ip addressesTransmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT_TO_POINT,Timer intervals configured, Hello 50, Dead 200, Wait 200, Retransmit 5oob-resync timeout 200Hello due in 00:00:28Supports Link-local Signaling (LLS)Index 2/2, flood queue length 0Next 0×0(0)/0×0(0)Last flood scan length is 0, maximum is 0Last flood scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msecNeighbor Count is 0, Adjacent neighbor count is 0Suppress hello for 0 neighbor(s)
R5#sh ip ospf int s1/0Serial1/0 is up, line protocol is upInternet Address 10.10.240.6/30, Area 0Process ID 5, Router ID 10.10.240.6, Network Type POINT_TO_POINT, Cost: 64Enabled by interface config, including secondary ip addressesTransmit Delay is 1 sec, State POINT_TO_POINT,Timer intervals configured, Hello 10, Dead 40, Wait 40, Retransmit 5oob-resync timeout 40Hello due in 00:00:04Supports Link-local Signaling (LLS)Index 1/1, flood queue length 0Next 0×0(0)/0×0(0)Last flood scan length is 0, maximum is 0Last flood scan time is 0 msec, maximum is 0 msecNeighbor Count is 0, Adjacent neighbor count is 0Suppress hello for 0 neighbor(s)
So we can see both hello and dead interval are mismatched because the dead interval always four times the value of hello interval, unless you manually configure the dead interval (with the ip ospf dead-interval <seconds> command).
