See the
“Monitoring and Troubleshooting BFD” section on page 40-17
for more information on
monitoring and troubleshooting BFD. If you want to configure BFD support for another routing
protocol, see the following sections:
•
Configuring BFD Support for EIGRP, page 40-10
•
Configuring BFD Support for OSPF, page 40-11
Configuring BFD Support for EIGRP
This section describes the procedure for configuring BFD support for EIGRP so that EIGRP is a
registered protocol with BFD and will receive forwarding path detection failure messages from BFD.
There are two methods for enabling BFD support for EIGRP:
•
You can enable BFD for all of the interfaces for which EIGRP is routing by using the
bfd
all-interfaces
command in router configuration mode.
•
You can enable BFD for a subset of the interfaces for which EIGRP is routing by using the
bfd
interface
type number
command in router configuration mode.
Prerequisites
EIGRP must be running on all participating switches.
The baseline parameters for BFD sessions on the interfaces over which you want to run BFD sessions to
BFD neighbors must be configured. See the
“Configuring BFD Session Parameters on the Interface”
for more information.
To configure BFD support for EIGRP, perform this task:
Step 5
end
Switch(config-router)#
end
Exits router configuration mode and returns the switch to
privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show bfd neighbors
[

Switch#
show bfd neighbors detail
(Optional) Verifies that the BFD neighbor is active and
displays the routing protocols that BFD has registered.
Step 7
show ip bgp neighbor
Switch#
show ip bgp neighbor
(Optional) Displays information about BGP and TCP
connections to neighbors.
