• Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP)
• Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP)
When multiple applications share the same BFD session, the application with the
most aggressive timer wins locally. Then, the result is negotiated with the peer
router.
Note
• BFD is supported for connections over the following interface types:
• Gigabit Ethernet (GigE)
• Hundred Gigabit Ethernet (HundredGigE)
• Ten Gigabit Ethernet (TenGigE)
• Packet-over-SONET/SDH (POS)
• Serial
• Virtual LAN (VLAN)
• Logical interfaces such as bundles, GRE, PWHE
BFD is supported on the above interface types and not on logical interfaces unless
specifically stated. For example, BFD cannot be configured on BVI and interflex.
Note
• Cisco IOS XR software supports BFD Version 0 and Version 1. BFD sessions are established using
either version, depending upon the neighbor. BFD Version 1 is the default version and is tried initially
for session creation.
