Disabling BFD for Port-Channels
If you disable BFD on an interface, sessions on the interface are torn down.
A nal Admin Down control packet is sent to all neighbors, and sessions on the remote system are placed in a Down state.
To disable BFD for a port-channel, use the following command.

Conguring Protocol Liveness
Protocol liveness is a feature that noties 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.
