HP MSR2000/3000/4000 Router Series High Availability Command Reference
50
Parameters
value: Specifies the minimum interval for transmitting single-hop BFD control packets, in milliseconds.
The value range for this argument is 30 to 10000.
Usage guidelines
Use this command to make sure the BFD packet sending rate does not exceed the device capability. The
actual BFD control packet transmitting interval on the local end is the greater value between the minimum
interval for transmitting BFD control packets on the local end and the minimum interval for receiving BFD
control packets on the peer end.
Examples
# Configure the minimum interval for transmitting single-hop BFD control packets on Ethernet 1/1 as 500
milliseconds.
