 \item \texttt{hello-retries} - the number of times to retry a Hello Interest before deciding the neighbor is down (Default value: 3; Valid values: 1 - 10).
 \item \texttt{hello-timeout} - the interest lifetime for Hello Interests in seconds (Default value: 1, Valid values: 1 - 15).
 \item \texttt{hello-interval} - the time in seconds between sending each Hello Interest to a neighbor. (Default value: 60; Valid values: 30 - 90).
-\item \texttt{first-hello-interval} -  the time to wait in seconds before sending the first Hello Interests (Default value: 10; Valid values: 0 - 10).
 \item \texttt{adj-lsa-build-interval} - when the Hello Protocol triggers an Adjacency LSA build, the LSDB will wait this amount of time in seconds before performing the Adjacency LSA build. This parameter is intended to allow for Adjacency LSA build requests to be aggregated and the build can then be performed once. (Default value: 5; Valid values: 0 - 5)

 \subsection{Hyperbolic Section}
 
 Hyperbolic Routing is a greedy geometric routing technique available in NLSR. The best resource to understand how it works is its white paper. \cite{HyperbolicASF}
