Connectivity Guide

ROUTER-BGP mode to specify the neighbor. Use the template template-name command in
ROUTER-BGP mode to specify a BGP template. Use the no bfd command in ROUTER-NEIGHBOR
mode to disable BFD sessions with a neighbor.
● Use the bfd all-neighbors command to configure L3 protocol-specific BFD parameters for all
BFD sessions between discovered neighbors. The BFD parameters you configure override the global
session parameters configured with the bfd interval command.
Example
OS10(conf)# router bgp 1
OS10(config-router-bgp-1)# neighbor 10.1.1.1
OS10(config-router-neighbor)# bfd
OS10(config-router-neighbor)# no shutdown
OS10(config)# router bgp 300
OS10(config-router-bgp-300)# template ebgppg
OS10(config-router-template)# bfd
OS10(config-router-template)# exit
OS10(config-router-bgp-300)# neighbor 3.1.1.1
OS10(config-router-neighbor)# inherit template ebgppg
OS10(config-router-neighbor)# no shutdown

bfd all-neighbors
Configures all BFD session parameters established between neighbors discovered by an L3 protocol.
Syntax
bfd all-neighbors [milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier number role
{active | passive}]
Parameters
● interval milliseconds — Enter the time interval for sending control packets to BFD peers,
from 100 to 1000. Dell EMC recommends using more than 100 milliseconds.
● min_rx milliseconds — Enter the maximum waiting time for receiving control packets from BFD
peers, from 100 to 1000. Dell EMC recommends using more than 100 milliseconds.
● multiplier number — Enter the maximum number of consecutive packets that must not be
received from a BFD peer before the session state changes to Down, from 3 to 50.
● role {active | passive} — Enter active if the router initiates BFD sessions. Both BFD
peers can be active at the same time. Enter passive if the router does not initiate BFD sessions, and
only responds to a request from an active BFD to initialize a session.
Default
The time interval for sending control packets to BFD peers is 200 milliseconds.
The maximum waiting time for receiving control packets from BFD peers is 200 milliseconds.
The number of consecutive packets that must be received from a BFD peer is 3.
The BFD role is active
Command Mode ROUTER-OSPF
Usage
Information
● Use the bfd all-neighbors command to configure BFD sessions between discovered neighbors.
The BFD session parameters you configure override the global session parameters configured with
the bfd interval command. To disable BFD and ignore the configured bfd all-neighbors
settings for a specified neighbor, enter the bfd disable command in ROUTER-NEIGHBOR mode.
● To remove the configured all-neighbors settings for all BGP neighbors, enter the no version of the
command. To return to the default values, enter the bfd all-neighbors command.
Example
OS10(conf-ospf-bgp)# bfd all-neighbors interval 250 min_rx 300
multiplier 4 role passive
