Example of Verifying Sessions with OSPF Neighbors
To view the established sessions, use the show bfd neighbors command.
The bold line shows the OSPF BFD sessions.
R2(conf-router_ospf)#bfd all-neighbors
R2(conf-router_ospf)#do show bfd neighbors
* - Active session role
Ad Dn - Admin Down
C - CLI

O - OSPF

Changing OSPFv3 Session Parameters
Congure BFD sessions with default intervals and a default role.
The parameters that you can congure are: desired tx interval, required min rx interval, detection multiplier,
and system role. Congure these parameters for all OSPFv3 sessions or all OSPFv3 sessions on a particular interface. If you change a
parameter globally, the change aects all OSPFv3 neighbors sessions. If you change a parameter at the interface level, the change aects
all OSPFv3 sessions on that interface.
To change parameters for all OSPFv3 sessions or for OSPFv3 sessions on a single interface, use the following commands.
To view session parameters, use the show bfd neighbors detail command, as shown in the example in Displaying BFD for BGP
Information.
Change parameters for all OSPFv3 sessions.

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 nal Admin Down packet is sent before the session is terminated.
To disable BFD sessions, use the following commands.
Disable BFD sessions with all OSPFv3 neighbors.
