Chapter 40 Configuring Bidirection Forwarding Detection
How to Configure Bidirectional Forwarding Detection
To configure BFD supporter for OSPF for one or more interfaces, perform this task:
What to Do Next
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 BGP, page 40-9
•
Configuring BFD Support for EIGRP, page 40-10
Configuring BFD Support for Static Routing
Perform this task to configure BFD support for static routing. Repeat the steps in this procedure on each
BFD neighbor. For more information, see the
“Example: Configuring BFD Support for Static Routing”
.
Command or Action
Purpose
Step 1
enable
Switch>
enable
Enables privileged EXEC mode.
•
Enter your password if prompted.
Step 2
configure
terminal
Switch#
configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 3
interface
type number
Switch(config)#
interface gigabitethernet 6/1
Enters interface configuration mode.
Step 4
ip ospf bfd
[
disable
]
Switch(config-if)#
ip ospf bfd
Enables or disables BFD on a per-interface basis for one or
more interfaces associated with the OSPF routing process.
Note
You should use the
disable
keyword only if you
enabled BFD on all of the interfaces that OSPF is
associated with using the
bfd all-interfaces
command in switch configuration mode.
Step 5
end
Switch(config-if)#
end
Exits interface configuration mode and returns the switch to
privileged EXEC mode.
Step 6
show bfd neighbors
[
details
]
Switch#
show bfd neighbors details
(Optional) Displays information that can help verify if the
BFD neighbor is active and displays the routing protocols
that BFD has registered.
Note
If hardware-offloaded BFD sessions are configured
with Tx and Rx intervals that are not multiples of
50 ms, the hardware intervals are changed.
However, output from the
show bfd neighbors
details
command displays the configured intervals,
not the changed ones.
Step 7
show ip ospf
Switch#
show ip ospf
(Optional) Displays information that can help verify if BFD
support for OSPF has been enabled.
