VLAN. In VLAN interface view, assign different IP addresses on the same network segment for different
member switches.
CAUTION:
A Layer 3 interface used for BFD MAD must be dedicated. Do not configure any other services on them.
Otherwise, both the configured services and the BFD MAD detection function can be affected.

Configuring BFD MAD detection
Perform the following tasks to configure BFD MAD detection:
•
Create a VLAN dedicated to BFD MAD detection. This is also required on the intermediate switch,
if it exists.
•
Select the physical IRF ports for BFD MAD detection (at least one on each member switch) and add
them into the detection-dedicated VLAN. This is also required on the intermediate switch, if it exists.
•
Create VLAN interfaces for the detection-dedicated VLAN, enable BFD MAD detection on these
interfaces, and then assign MAD IP addresses for them.
Follow these steps to configure BFD MAD:
