The output from the show bfd neighbors details command from SwitchA verifies that BFD sessions
have been created among all three switches and that EIGRP is registered for BFD support. The first
group of output shows that SwitchC with the IP address 172.16.1.3 runs BFD Version 0 and therefore
does not use the echo mode. The second group of output shows that SwitchB with the IP address
172.16.1.2 does run BFD Version 1, and the 50 millisecond BFD interval parameter had been adopted.
The relevant command output is shown in bold.
