Changing VRRP Session Parameters
BFD sessions are configured with default intervals and a default role.
The parameters that you can configure are: Desired TX Interval, Required Min RX Interval, Detection
Multiplier, and system role. You can change parameters for all VRRP sessions or for a particular neighbor.
To change parameters for all VRRP sessions or for a particular VRRP session, use the following
commands.
• Change parameters for all VRRP sessions.
INTERFACE mode
vrrp bfd all-neighbors interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier
value role [active | passive]
• Change parameters for a particular VRRP session.
INTERFACE mode
vrrp bfd neighbor ip-address interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds
multiplier value role [active | passive]
To view session parameters, use the show bfd neighbors detail command, as shown in the
example in Verifying BFD Sessions with BGP Neighbors Using the show bfd neighbors command
example in Displaying BFD for BGP Information.
