Configuring BFD for OSPF

BFD provides a single mechanism to quickly detect and monitor the connectivity of links between OSPF
neighbors, which improves the network convergence speed. For more information about BFD, see High

Availability Configuration Guide.
OSPF supports the following BFD detection modes:

Bidirectional control detection—Requires BFD configuration to be made on both OSPF routers on
the link.

Single-hop echo detection—Requires BFD configuration to be made on one OSPF router on the link.

Configuring bidirectional control detection

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enter interface view.

interface interface-type
interface-number

N/A

3.

Enable BFD bidirectional control
detection.

ospf bfd enable

By default, BFD bidirectional control
detection is disabled.
Both ends of a BFD session must be on

the same network segment and in the

same area.

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

2.

Configure the source address of echo
packets.

bfd echo-source-ip ip-address

By default, the source address
of echo packets is not

configured.

3.

Enter interface view.

4.

Enable BFD single-hop echo
detection.

ospf bfd enable echo

By default, BFD single-hop
echo detection is disabled.

Configuring OSPF FRR

A link or router failure on a path can cause packet loss and even routing loop until OSPF completes

routing convergence based on the new network topology. FRR uses BFD to detect failures and enables

fast rerouting to minimize the impact of link or node failures.
