screen found under Configuration on the Main Menu. The
OSPF Configuration screen shown on the top right appears.

Timer settings
OSPF timers should almost always be left at their
recommended default settings.
Changes to these timers can have serious
consequences. If they are not set the same for each
OSPF router on your network, the routers will not
exchange information.
