Usage
Information
All neighbors inherit the configured timer values except in the following cases:
Timer values configured with the isis bfd all-neighbors or ip ospf bfd all-
neighbors commands in INTERFACE mode override timer values configured with the bfd all-
neighbors command. Likewise, using the no bfd neighbor command does not disable BFD on
an interface if you explicitly enable BFD using the isis bfd all-neighbors command.
Neighbors that have been explicitly enabled or disabled for a BFD session with the bfd neighbor or
neighbor bfd disable commands in ROUTER BGP mode do not inherit the global BFD enable/
disable values configured with the bfd all-neighbors command or configured for the peer group
to which a neighbor belongs. The neighbors inherit only the global timer values.
You can only enable BFD for VRRP in INTERFACE command mode (vrrp bfd all-neighbors).
