Usage Information
When you explicitly disable a BGP neighbor for a BFD session with the neighbor bfd disable command:
• The neighbor does not inherit the global BFD disable values congured with the bfd neighbor command or
congured for the peer group to which the neighbor belongs.
• The neighbor only inherits the global timer values congured with the bfd neighbor command: interval,
min_rx, and multiplier.
When you remove the Disabled state of a BFD for a BGP session with a specied neighbor by entering the no
neighbor bfd disable
command, the BGP link with the neighbor returns to normal operation and uses the
BFD session parameters globally congured with the bfd neighbor command or congured for the peer group
to which the neighbor belongs.
