Configuring BFD for IPv6 BGP

IPv6 BGP maintains neighbor relationships based on the keepalive timer and holdtime timer, which are

set in seconds. IPv6 BGP defines that the holdtime interval must be at least three times the keepalive

interval. This mechanism makes the detection of a link failure rather slow and thus causes a large

quantity of packets to be dropped especially when the failed link is a high-speed link. You can enable

BFD to detect the link to a peer. BFD can quickly detect any link failure and thus reduce network
convergence time.
To enable BFD for a BGP peer:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Enable BGP and enter BGP
view.

bgp as-number

Not enabled by default

3.

Enter IPv6 address family

view.

ipv6-family

N/A

4.

Enable BFD for the specified
BGP peer.

peer ipv6-address bfd

Not enabled for any BGP peer by
default

NOTE:

Before you configure BFD for IPv6 BGP, you must enable BGP.

After a link failure occurs, BFD may detect the failure before the system performs GR and as a result, GR
will fail. Therefore, if GR capability is enabled for IPv6 BGP, use BFD with caution.
