Hi Frank and Jason,

I don't understand how changing the hello timer on one end of the link (rtrA) can change the hold
time on the adjacent router (routerb). I've tried this on my router with IOS version 12.1(13),
I've tried with setting the hello on one router to 10 seconds. So if the solutions works, it should
change the hold time on the other router to 30 right ?
when I do show IP eigrp neigh, and watch the counter for holddown, what I see is that it get
decremented up to 5 second before it get restored to 14. Meaning the router still use the default 15
second as the holdtime and wait for the hello for 15 seconds, because the other end is configured to
send hello every 10 seconds it get decremented for 10 seconds, so it's correct. But I do not see it
set the holdtime to 30.

Is this IOS related or Is it my understanding on matter ?

RTRA

int e0
  ip addr 150.100.23.2 255.255.255.0
  ip hello ei 100 10

router eigrp 100
  net 150.100.23.0 0.0.0.255
  no auto
end

RTRB
int e0
  ip addr 150.100.23.3 255.255.255.0

router eigrp 100
   net 150.100.23.0 0.0.0.255
   no auto
end

Best Regards
Donny
