Configuring BFD MAD
When you use BFD MAD, follow these guidelines:
Category
BFD MAD VLAN
BFD MAD VLAN and feature
compatibility
MAD IP address
To configure BFD MAD:
Step
1.
Enter system view.
2.
Assign a domain ID to the
IRF fabric.
3.
Create a VLAN dedicated to
BFD MAD.
4.
Return to system view.
5.
Enter interface view or
interface range view.
Restrictions and guidelines
•
Do not enable BFD MAD on VLAN-interface 1.
•
If you are using an intermediate device, assign the ports of BFD MAD links to
the BFD MAD VLAN on the device.
•
The IRF fabrics in a network must use different BFD MAD VLANs.
•
Do not use the BFD MAD VLAN for any purpose other than configuring BFD
MAD. Layer 2 or Layer 3 features, including ARP and LACP, cannot work on
the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface or any port in the VLAN. If you
configure any other feature on the VLAN, neither the configured feature nor
the BFD MAD function will work correctly.
•
Disable the spanning tree feature on any port in the BFD MAD VLAN. The
MAD function is mutually exclusive with the spanning tree feature.
•
Do not bind a BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface to any VPN instance. The
MAD function is mutually exclusive with VPN.
•
To avoid problems, only use the mad ip address command to configure IP
addresses on the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface. Do not configure an IP
address with the ip address command or configure a VRRP virtual address on
the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface.
•
All MAD IP addresses on the BFD MAD-enabled VLAN interface must be on
the same subnet.
Command
system-view
irf domain domain-id
vlan vlan-id
quit
•
Enter interface range view:
Method 1:
interface range { interface-type
interface-number [ to
interface-type
interface-number ] } &<1-5>
Method 2:
interface range name name
[ interface { interface-type
interface-number [ to
interface-type
interface-number ] } &<1-5> ]
•
Enter interface view:

Remarks
N/A
By default, the domain ID of an
IRF fabric is 0.
The default VLAN on the device
is VLAN 1.
N/A
To assign a range of ports to the
BFD MAD VLAN, enter interface
range view.
To assign one port to the BFD
MAD VLAN, enter Ethernet
interface view.
