Task
Use MPLS ping to verify the
connectivity of a PW.

Configuring BFD for a PW

Follow these steps to configure BFD for a PW:
1. Enable BFD for MPLS.
2. Create a PW class, and configure BFD for PW connectivity verification in PW class view.
3. Create the PW, and reference the PW class created in the previous step for the PW.
Whether BFD is used to verify PW connectivity, which encapsulation type is used for the BFD packets,
and which CC type is used are determined by the configurations on both ends of the PW.
If both PEs of the PW have configured BFD for the PW and use the same BFD packet encapsulation
•
type, the PEs use the specified encapsulation type to verify the PW connectivity. Otherwise, the PEs
do not use BFD to verify the PW connectivity.
If both PEs have specified the same VCCV CC type, the specified VCCV CC type is used. Otherwise,
•
the PEs do not use any CC and they cannot establish a BFD session for the PW.
