Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD)
Enter the role that the local system assumes:
• Active — The active system initiates the BFD session.
Both systems can be active for the same session.
• Passive — The passive system does not initiate a
session. It only responds to a request for session

The default is Active.
