you timers are very low. That can cause the reload of OSPF...

Hello Subashmbi,

the local node didn't see an OSPF message from neighbor for 3 seconds and declared down the neighbor.

The OSPF adjacency has been rebuilt.

I would suggest you to use a dead interval = 4 seconds to follow the 1:4 ratio of default timers.

The VSAT may introduce high delay also. So I would use even 5 or 6 seconds  as dead interval

Check also the following:

interface counters with sh interface to see if there are errors

the QoS that is implemented on the link.

Not all Cisco platforms have a system queue to protect OSPF messages, check for output drops on the other side.

Hope to help

Giuseppe

Hi Guislar,

Thanks for the update.

I will tweak this parameters and update.

I didn,t see any interface errors.Yes, QOS shaping is configured in this interface.

Yes, I am getting Output drops...
