To view a BFD session with a particular neighbor, use the show ip|ipv6 bfd sessions command followed 
by the session number. For example: 
-> show ip bfd sessions 1
Local discriminator              = 1,
Neighbor IP Address              = 101.1.1.11,
Requested Session Type           = ASYNC ,

Source UDP Port                  = 49153,
State                            = UP,
Session Operating Mode           = None,
Remote discriminator             = 1,
Negotiated Tx interval           = 300,
Negotiated Rx interval           = 300,
Echo Rx interval                 = 300,
Multiplier                       = 3,

Whenever there is any change to the interface/neighbor list or interface/neighbor state, OSPF immediately 
informs BFD about the changes. Additionally, whenever BFD detects any changes to the other end, BFD 
updates its database accordingly and informs OSPF for its fastest convergence.
Configuring BFD Support for PIM
The steps below show how to configure and verify BFD support for IPv4 and IPv6 PIM, so that both are 
registered protocols with BFD and receive forwarding path detection failure messages from BFD.
Note. PIM must be running on all participating routers, and BFD must be configured and enabled on the 
participating PIM interfaces. See “Configuring BFD Session Parameters” on page 20-14 for more 
information.
