Establishing Sessions for IPv6 Static Routes for Default VRF
Sessions are established for all neighbors that are the next hop of a static route on the default VRF.
To establish a BFD session, use the following command.
Establish BFD sessions for all IPv6 neighbors that are the next hop of a static route.
CONFIGURATION mode
ipv6 route bfd [prefix-list prefix-list-name] [interval interval min_rx min_rx multiplier
value role {active | passive}]
Example of the show bfd neighbors Command to Verify Static Routes
To verify that sessions have been created for static routes, use the show bfd neighbors command.
To view detailed session information, use the show bfd neighbors detail command, as shown in the examples in .
Establishing Sessions for IPv6 Static Routes for Nondefault VRF
You can also create nondefault VRFs and establish sessions for all neighbors that are the next hop of a static route.
To establish a BFD session for nondefault VRFs, use the following command.
Establish BFD sessions for all IPv6 neighbors that are the next hop of a static route.
CONFIGURATION mode
ipv6 route bfd vrf vrf-name [prefix-list prefix-list-name] [interval interval min_rx min_rx
multiplier value role {active | passive}]
Example Conguration and Verication
The following example contains static routes for both default and nondefault VRFs.
Dell#show run | grep bfd
bfd enable
ipv6 route bfd prefix-list p6_le
ipv6 route bfd vrf vrf1
ipv6 route bfd vrf vrf2
ipv6 route bfd vrf vrf1 prefix-list p6_le
The following example shows that sessions are created for static routes for the default VRF.
The following example shows that sessions are created for static routes for the nondefault VRFs.
Changing IPv6 Static Route Session Parameters
BFD sessions are congured with default intervals and a default role.
The parameters you can congure are: Desired TX Interval, Required Min RX Interval, Detection Multiplier, and system role. These
parameters are congured for all static routes. If you change a parameter, the change aects all sessions for static routes.
To change parameters for static route sessions, use the following command .
