The following example shows viewing all BFD neighbors.
The following example shows viewing BFD neighbors with full detail.
The bold lines show the BFD session parameters: TX (packet transmission), RX (packet reception), and multiplier (maximum number of
missed packets).
The following example shows viewing BFD summary information.
The bold line shows the message displayed when you enable BFD for BGP connections.

The following example shows viewing BFD information for a specied neighbor.
The bold lines show the message displayed when you enable a BFD session with dierent congurations:
• Message displays when you enable a BFD session with a BGP neighbor that inherits the global BFD session settings congured with
the global bfd all-neighbors command.
• Message displays when you enable a BFD session with a BGP neighbor using the neighbor ip-address bfd command.
• Message displays when you enable a BGP neighbor in a peer group for which you enabled a BFD session using the neighbor peer-
group-name
bfd command
R2# show ip bgp neighbors 2.2.2.2
BGP neighbor is 2.2.2.2, remote AS 1, external link
