Configure the maximum 
number of RIP packets that can 
be sent at the specified interval 

output-delay time count count

Optional 

By default, an interface sends 
up to three RIP packets every 
20 milliseconds. 

 

 

For more information about BFD, refer to BFD Configuration in the High Availability Volume.  

 

BFD for RIP provides two link detection modes: 

z 

Single-hop detection in BFD echo packet mode for a directly connected neighbor. In this mode, a 

BFD session is established only when the neighbor has route information to send. 

z 

Bidirectional detection in BFD control packet mode for an indirectly connected neighbor. In this 

mode, a BFD session is established only when both ends have routes to send and BFD is enabled 

on the receiving interface. 

Follow these steps to configure BFD for RIP (single-hop detection in BFD echo packet mode): 

Enter system view 

— 

Configure the source IP 
address of BFD echo packets 

bfd echo-source-ip 
ip-address 

Required  

By default, no source IP 
address is configured for BFD 
echo packets. 

Enter interface view 

interface interface-type 
interface-number 

— 

Enable BFD on the RIP 
interface 

Required 

Disabled by default. 

 

Follow these steps to configure BFD for RIP (bidirectional detection in BFD control packet mode): 

Enter system view 

— 

Create a RIP process and enter 
RIP view 

rip [ process-id ] 
[ vpn-instance 
vpn-instance-name ] 

Required 

By default, RIP is disabled.
