Configuring BFD for BGP
By default, the BGP keepalive interval is 60 seconds and the holdtime interval is 180 seconds. If neither
the holdtime interval nor the keepalive interval is configured as 0, the holdtime interval must be at least
three times the keepalive interval. This makes the detection of neighbors rather slow, and a large
quantity of packets will be dropped when being transmitted or received through a high-speed interface.
Therefore, BFD was introduced to solve this problem. It can quickly finds neighbors and thus reduce
network convergence time.
Follow these steps to enable BFD for a BGP peer:
