BFD for BGP configuration example
Network requirements
As shown in Figure 77, configure OSPF as the IGP in AS 200.
Establish two IBGP connections between Switch A and Switch C. When both paths operate
correctly, Switch C uses the path Switch A<—>Switch B<—>Switch C to exchange packets
with network 1.1.1.0/24.
Configure BFD over the path. When the path fails, BFD can quickly detect the failure and notify
it to BGP. Then, the path Switch A<—>Switch D<—>Switch C takes effect immediately.

Configuration procedure
1. Configure IP addresses for interfaces. (Details not shown.)
2. Configure OSPF to ensure that Switch A and Switch C are reachable to each other. (Details not
shown.)
3. Configure BGP on Switch A:
# Establish two IBGP connections to Switch C.
