Configuring BFD for VRRP
BFD for VRRP is only supported on platforms:
When using BFD with VRRP, the VRRP protocol registers with the BFD manager on the RPM. BFD
sessions are established with all neighboring interfaces participating in VRRP. If a neighboring interface
fails, the BFD agent on the line card notifies the BFD manager, which in turn notifies the VRRP protocol
that a link state change occurred.
Configuring BFD for VRRP is a three-step process:
1. Enable BFD globally. Refer to
2. Establish VRRP BFD sessions with all VRRP-participating neighbors.
3. On the master router, establish a VRRP BFD sessions with the backup routers. Refer to
sessions with all VRRP
