(configured with the bfd neighbor command).
You can only enable BFD for VRRP in INTERFACE command mode (vrrp bfd
all-neighbors
).

BGP peer group.
ip route bfd
Enable BFD for all neighbors configured through static routes.
Syntax
ip route bfd [interval interval min_rx min_rx multiplier value
role {active | passive}]
To disable BFD for all neighbors configured through static routes, use the no ip
route bfd [interval interval min_rx min_rx multiplier value
role {active | passive}] command.
Parameters
interval
milliseconds
(OPTIONAL) Enter the keywords interval to specify non-
default BFD session parameters beginning with the
transmission interval. The range is from 50 to 1000. The
default is 200.
min_rx
milliseconds
Enter the keywords min_rx to specify the minimum rate at
which the local system receives control packets from the
remote system. The range is from 50 to 1000. The default is

multiplier value Enter the keywords multiplier to specify the number of
