PurposeCommand or Action
Enters global configuration mode.configure terminal
Example:
Device# configure terminal
Step 2
Specifies a BGP process and enters router
configuration mode.
router bgp as-tag
Example:
Device(config)# router bgp tag1
Step 3
Enables BFD support for fallover.
neighbor ip-address fall-over bfd
Example:
Device(config-router)# neighbor
172.16.10.2 fall-over bfd
Step 4
Exits router configuration mode and returns the
router to privileged EXEC mode.
end
Example:
Device(config-router)# end
Step 5
(Optional) Verifies that the BFD neighbor is
active and displays the routing protocols that
BFD has registered.
show bfd neighbors [details]
Example:
Device# show bfd neighbors detail
Step 6
(Optional) Displays information about BGP and
TCP connections to neighbors.
show ip bgp neighbor
Example:
Device# show ip bgp neighbor
Step 7
Configuring BFD Support for EIGRP
This section describes the procedure for configuring BFD support for EIGRP so that EIGRP is a registered
protocol with BFD and will receive forwarding path detection failure messages from BFD. There are two
methods for enabling BFD support for EIGRP:
•
You can enable BFD for all of the interfaces for which EIGRP is routing by using the bfd all-interfaces
command in router configuration mode.
•
You can enable BFD for a subset of the interfaces for which EIGRP is routing by using the bfd interface
type number command in router configuration mode.
