Purpose
Command or Action
configure
Step 1
Enters BFD configuration mode.
bfd
Example:
Step 2
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config)# bfd
Specifies delays in milliseconds for BFD session startup to
control flapping.

initial-wait
|
maximum-wait
|
secondary-wait
}
milliseconds
Step 3
Example:
The value for
maximum-wait
should be greater than the
value for
initial-wait
.
RP/0/RP0/CPU0:router(config-bfd)# dampening
initial-wait 30000
The dampening values can be defined for bundle member
interfaces and for the non-bundle interfaces.

Enabling and Disabling IPv6 Checksum Support
By default, IPv6 checksum calculations on UDP packets are enabled for BFD on the router.
You can disable IPv6 checksum support for BFD on the entire router, or for a particular interface. These
sections describe about:
The command-line interface (CLI) is slightly different in BFD configuration and BFD interface configuration.
For BFD configuration, the
disable
keyword is not optional. Therefore, to enable BFD configuration in that
mode, you need to use the
no
form of the command.
