3. Associate a non-default VRF with the interface you have entered.

4. Assign an IP address to the VRF.

5. Attach the interface to an OSPF area.
ipv6 ospf ospf-instance area area-address
VRF CONFIGURATION Mode
6. Establish BFD session with OSPFv3 neighbors in a single OSPF interface in a non-default VRF instance.
ipv6 ospf bfd all-neoghbors

7. Enter ROUTER-OSPF mode in a non-default VRF instance.

8. Establish BFD sessions with all OSPFv2 instances in a non-default VRF.
bfd all-neighbors
Changing OSPFv3 session parameters
Configure BFD sessions 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. Configure
these parameters for all OSPFv3 sessions or all OSPFv3 sessions on a particular interface. If you change a parameter globally, the change
affects all OSPFv3 neighbors sessions. If you change a parameter at the interface level, the change affects all OSPF sessions on that
interface.
NOTE:
By default, OSPF uses the following BFD parameters for it's neighbors: min_tx = 200 msec, min_rx = 200 msec,
multiplier = 3, role = active. If BFD is configured under interface context, that will be given high priority.
To change parameters for all OSPFv3 sessions or for OSPF sessions on a single interface, use the following commands:
1. Change parameters for OSPF sessions.
bfd all-neighbors interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier value role [active |
passive]
ROUTER-OSPFv3 Mode
2. Change parameters for all OSPF sessions on an interface.
ipv6 ospf bfd all-neighbors interval milliseconds min_rx milliseconds multiplier value role
[active | passive]
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION Mode
Disabling BFD for OSPFv3
If you disable BFD globally, all sessions are torn down and sessions on the remote system are placed in a Down state. If you disable BFD on
an interface, sessions on the interface are torn down and sessions on the remote system are placed in a Down state. Disabling BFD does
not trigger a change in BFD clients; a final Admin Down packet is sent before the session is terminated.
To disable BFD sessions, use the following commands:
1. Disable BFD sessions with all OSPF neighbors.
no bfd all-neighbors
ROUTER-OSPFv3 Mode
2. Disable BFD sessions with all OSPF neighbors on an interface.
ipv6 ospf bfd all-neighbors disable
INTERFACE CONFIGURATION Mode
To re-enable BFD, disabled the interface alone using the following commands:
no ipv6 ospf bfd all-neighbors command
ipv6 ospf bfd all-neighbors
