Configuring Protocol Liveness; Troubleshooting Bfd - Dell S4048–ON Configuration Manual

To disable all VRRP sessions on an interface, sessions for a particular VRRP group, or for a particular VRRP session on an interface, use the
following commands.
• Disable all VRRP sessions on an interface.
INTERFACE mode
no vrrp bfd all-neighbors
• Disable all VRRP sessions in a VRRP group.
VRRP mode
bfd disable
• Disable a particular VRRP session on an interface.
INTERFACE mode
no vrrp bfd neighbor ip-address

Configuring Protocol Liveness

Protocol liveness is a feature that notifies the BFD manager when a client protocol is disabled.
When you disable a client, all BFD sessions for that protocol are torn down. Neighbors on the remote system receive an Admin Down
control packet and are placed in the Down state.
To enable protocol liveness, use the following command.
• Enable Protocol Liveness.
CONFIGURATION mode
bfd protocol-liveness

Troubleshooting BFD

To troubleshoot BFD, use the following commands and examples.
To control packet field values or to examine the control packets in hexadecimal format, use the following command.
• Examine control packet field values.
CONFIGURATION mode
debug bfd detail
• Examine the control packets in hexadecimal format.
CONFIGURATION
debug bfd packet
Examples of Output from the debug bfd Commands
The following example shows a three-way handshake using the debug bfd detail command.
