Far-End Failure Detection

Far-end failure detection (FEFD) is a protocol that senses remote data link errors in a network. FEFD
responds by sending a unidirectional report that triggers an echoed response after a specified time
interval. You can enable FEFD globally or locally on an interface basis. Disabling the global FEFD
configuration does not disable the interface configuration.
