Configuring BFD for RIP (single-hop echo detection for a 
directly connected neighbor) 
Network requirements 
As shown in Figure 11, Ethernet 1/1 of Router A and Router C runs RIP process 1. Ethernet 1/2 of Router 
A runs RIP process 2. Ethernet 1/2 of Router C and Ethernet 1/1 and Ethernet 1/2 of Router B run RIP 
process 1.  
Configure a static route destined for 100.1.1.1/24 and enable static route redistribution into RIP on Router 
C so Router A can learn two routes destined for 100.1.1.1/24 through Ethernet 1/1 and Ethernet 1/2 
respectively, and uses the one through Ethernet 1/1. 
Enable BFD for RIP on Ethernet 1/1 of Router A. When the link over Ethernet 1/1 fails, BFD can quickly 
detect the failure and notify it to RIP so RIP deletes the neighbor relationship and route information 
learned on Ethernet 1/1, and uses the route destined for 100.1.1.1 24 through Ethernet 1/2.
