Configures the global BFD echo packet time interval. The echo function is available with the asynchro-

which they originated.

• The echo packet time interval is also configurable at the BFD interface level. Note that configuring the 

global value with the ip bfd-std echo interval command does not override the value set for the inter-
face using the ip bfd-std interface echo interval command.

• The global echo packet time interval serves as the default interval value for a BFD interface. The 

default interval value is overridden when a specific value is configured for the interface.
