To view detailed session information, use the show bfd neighbors detail command.
Establishing Sessions for 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 neighbors that are the next hop of a static route.
CONFIGURATION mode
ip 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#sh run | grep bfd
bfd enable
ip route bfd prefix-list p4_le
ip route bfd vrf vrf1
ip route bfd vrf vrf2
ip route bfd vrf vrf1 prefix-list p4_le
The following example shows that sessions are created for static routes for the default VRF.
