Configuring BFD at the Tail End
Use the tail end global configuration commands to set the BFD minimum-interval and BFD multiplier
parameters for all BFD over LSP sessions. The ranges and default values are the same as the BFD head end
configuration values. BFD will take the maximum value set between head end minimum interval and tail end
minimum interval.
Perform these tasks to configure BFD at the tail end.

DETAILED STEPS
Purpose
Command or Action
configure
Step 1
Configures hello interval in milliseconds.
mpls traffic-eng bfd lsp tailminimum-interval
milliseconds
Step 2
Hello interval range is 100 to 30000 milliseconds. Default
hello interval is 100 milliseconds
Example:
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#mpls traffic-eng bfd
lsp tail minimum-interval 20000
Configures BFD multiplier detection.
mpls traffic-eng bfd lsp tailmultiplier number
Step 3
Example:
BFD multiplier detect range is 3 to 10. Default BFD
multiplier is 3.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)#mpls traffic-eng bfd
lsp tail multiplier 5

Step 4
What to do next
Configure
bfd multipath include location node-id
command to include specified line cards to host BFD
multiple path sessions.
Configuring BFD over LSP Sessions on Line Cards
BFD over LSP sessions, both head-end and tail-end, will be hosted on line cards with following configuration
enabled.
