Usage guidelines
With the IS-IS hello multiplier configured, a router can uses hello packets to notify its neighbor router of
the adjacency hold time (hello multiplier times hello interval). If the neighbor router receives no hello
packets from this router within the hold time, it declares the adjacency down. You can adjust the
adjacency hold time by changing the hello multiplier or the hello interval on an interface.
Level-1 and Level-2 hello packets are sent independently on a broadcast network, so you need to specify
a hello multiplier for the two levels. On a P2P link, Level-1 and Level-2 packets are both sent in P2P hello
packets, and you need not specify Level-1 or Level-2.
You can configure keywords level-1 and level-2 only on broadcast interfaces. Before doing that, you
need to enable IS-IS on the interface.
If no level is specified, the hello multiplier applies to the current level.
Examples
# Configure the hello multiplier as 6 for interface GigabitEthernet 1/1.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] interface gigabitethernet 1/1
[Sysname-GigabitEthernet1/1] isis timer holding-multiplier 6 level-2

NOTE:
This command is not available in loopback interface view.
Use isis timer lsp to configure the minimum interval for sending LSPs on the interface and specify the
maximum LSPs that can be sent per time.
Use undo isis timer lsp to restore the default of 33 milliseconds.
Syntax
isis timer lsp time [ count count ]
