Configuring BFD for IPv6 IS-IS
Bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) can quickly detect faults between IPv6 IS-IS neighbors to
improve the convergence speed of IPv6 IS-IS. For more information about BFD, see
High Availability
Configuration Guide
.
To configure BFD for IPv6 IS-IS:

3.
Configure the NET for the IS-IS
process.

7.
Enable IPv6 for an IS-IS
process.
isis ipv6 enable
[
process-id

By default, IPv6 is disabled for an
IS-IS process.
8.
Enable BFD for IPv6 IS-IS.
isis ipv6 bfd enable
By default, BFD for IPv6 IS-IS is
disabled.
Enabling IPv6 IS-IS MTR
On a network, IPv4 and IPv6 topologies must be consistent so that both IPv6 IS-IS and IPv4 IS-IS can use
the SPF algorithm to perform route calculation. If they are different, routers supporting both IPv4 and IPv6
might send IPv6 packets to routers that do not support IPv6, resulting in packet loss.
To resolve this issue, configure IPv6 IS-IS Multi-Topology Routing (MTR) to perform route calculation
separately in IPv4 and IPv6 topologies.
