The output of the show ip bgp neighbors command verifies that BFD has been enabled for the BGP
neighbors:
SwitchA
SwitchA# show ip bgp neighbors
BGP neighbor is 1.1.1.2, remote AS 45000, external link

SwitchB
SwitchB# show ip bgp neighbors
BGP neighbor is 1.1.1.1, remote AS 40000, external link

Example: Configuring BFD Support for Static Routing
In the following example, the network consists of SwitchA and SwitchB. Gigabit Ethernet interface 6/1
on SwitchA is connected to the same network as gigabit ethernet interface 6/1 on SwitchB. For the BFD
session to come up, SwitchB must be configured.
SwitchA
configure terminal
no switchport
interface Gigabit Ethernet 6/1
ip address 10.201.201.1 255.255.255.0
bfd interval 500 min_rx 500 multiplier 5
ip route static bfd Gigabit Ethernet 6/1 10.201.201.2
ip route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 Gigabit Ethernet 6/1 10.201.201.2
SwitchB
configure terminal
no switchport
interface Gigabit Ethernet 6/1
ip address 10.201.201.2 255.255.255.0
bfd interval 500 min_rx 500 multiplier 5
ip route static bfd Gigabit Ethernet 6/1 10.201.201.1
ip route 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.255 Gigabit Ethernet 6/1 10.201.201.1
