Enabling BFD Routing Protocol Clients

After you configure BFD parameters on an interface, you can start a BFD session for one or more routing
protocols. You must first enable routing by entering the ip routing global configuration command on the
switch. Note that there can be more than one way to start a BFD session on an interface, depending on
the routing protocol.

Configuring BFD for OSPF

When you start BFD sessions for OSPF, OSPF must be running on all participating devices.You can
enable BFD support for OSPF by enabling it globally on all OSPF interfaces or by enabling it on one or
more interfaces.

Note
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Verify your entries.
(Optional) Display the final configured or negotiated values when the
session is created with a neighbor.
(Optional) Save your entries in the configuration file.

interval—Specify the rate at which BFD echo packets are sent to BFD
peers. The range is from 50 to 999 milliseconds (ms).
min_rx—Specify the rate at which BFD echo packets are expected to
be received from BFD peers. The range is from 50 to 999 ms.
multiplier—Specify the number of consecutive BFD echo packets that
must be missed from a BFD peer before BFD declares that it is
unavailable and informs the other BFD peer of the failure. The range is
from 3 to 50.
There are no baseline BFD parameter defaults.
