You can manipulate the EIGRP hello and hold timers on the links that you have.

I my environment we send hello's ever second - the hold time is 3 seconds. So if the neighbour does not receive a hello after 3 seconds that neighbour is dead, and the feasible sucessor takes over.

You can amned the timers lower - howwever I would not recommend this, as you could introduce flapping links.

HTH.

Dear sir,

Thanks for ur reply and is there any document for maniplating EIGRP hello.

Regards

The commands are place in the interface:-

ip hello-interval eigrp

example:- ip hello-interval eigrp 3 1

ip hold-time eigrp

example:- ip hold-time eigrp 3 3
