OSPF doesn't have any link state detection. If carrier is up, hello packets are sent out to the interface, if carrier is down, no hellos. With hellos adjacencies can be formed to exchange routing information. I don't see any concept of "OSPF's own link state detection" here. regards, -- Hasso Tepper Elion Enterprises Ltd.
