# Ollama Chat Model node

The Ollama Chat Model node allows you use local Llama 2 models with conversational [agents](/08-0-0-Workflow/glossary.md#ai-agent).

On this page, you'll find the node parameters for the Ollama Chat Model node, and links to more resources.

```{note} Credentials
You can find authentication information for this node [here](/08-0-0-Workflow/integrations/builtin/credentials/ollama.md).

```{include} ../../../../../../_snippets/integrations/builtin/cluster-nodes/sub-node-expression-resolution.md

```

## Node parameters

* **Model**: Select the model that generates the completion. Choose from:
	* **Llama2**
	* **Llama2 13B**
	* **Llama2 70B**
	* **Llama2 Uncensored**

Refer to the Ollama [Models Library documentation](https://ollama.com/library) for more information about available models.

## Node options

* **Sampling Temperature**: Use this option to control the randomness of the sampling process. A higher temperature creates more diverse sampling, but increases the risk of hallucinations.
* **Top K**: Enter the number of token choices the model uses to generate the next token.
* **Top P**: Use this option to set the probability the completion should use. Use a lower value to ignore less probable options.
