Configuring BFD Quick Steps for Configuring BFD
OmniSwitch AOS Release 8 Network Configuration Guide December 2017 page 20-8
2 Enable BFD for a specific IPv6 PIM interface using the ipv6 pim interface bfd-state command or for
all IPv6 PIM interfaces using the ipv6 pim bfd-state all-interfaces command. For example:
-> ipv6 pim interface pimInt1 bfd-state enable
-> ipv6 pim bfd-state all-interfaces enable
Configuring BFD Support for IPv4 Static Routes
Enable BFD support for a specific IPv4 static route using the ip static-route bfd-state command or for all
IPv4 static routes using the ip static-route all bfd-state command. For example:
-> ip static-route 192.100.1.0/24 gateway 100.1.1.10 bfd-state enable
-> ip static-route all bfd-state enable
To create a BFD session for an IPv4 static route, make sure that:
• the gateway address does not match any of the local interface addresses on the switch
• BFD is enabled for the interface on which the gateway address exists.
• If multiple routes are configured with the same gateway address, only one BFD session is run.
Configuring BFD Support for IPv6 Static Routes
Enable BFD support for a specific IPv6 static route using the ipv6 static-route bfd-state command or for
all IPv6 static routes using the ipv6 static-route all bfd-state command. For example:
-> ipv6 static-route 195:35::/64 gateway fe80::2d0:95ff:fe12:f470 bfd-state
enable
-> ipv6 static-route all bfd-state enable
To create a BFD session for an IPv6 static route, make sure that:
• the gateway address does not match any of the local interface addresses on the switch
Note. To display the IPv4 static routes on which BFD is enabled use the show ip router database
command along with the protocol static option as shown below:
-> ip static-route 100.0.0.0/8 gateway 100.1.1.10 bfd-state enable
-> show ip router database protocol static
Legend: + indicates routes in-use
b indicates BFD-enabled static route
i indicates interface static route
r indicates recursive static route, with following address in brackets
