To implement protection switching within 50 ms, set the minimum interval at which BFD packets are sent and received to 3.3 ms. The restraints on switches are as follows:
- For the S12700, the MPU must be an ET1D2MPUA000/ET1D2MPUDC00 card.
- For the S12700E, the MPU must be an LST7MPUE0000 card.
- For the S9700, the MPU must be an EH1D2SRUDC00/EH1D2SRUDC01 card.
- For the S7700, the MPU must have an ES0D00FSUA00 card installed or be an EH1D2SRUDC00/EH1D2SRUDC01 card.
- For the S7706/S7706 PoE or S7712, the assign system-resource-mode static command must be run to set the resource allocation mode to static so that the BFD detection duration can be controlled within 50 ms.
- For the S5720-HI, S5730-HI, S5731-H, S5731-S, S5731S-H, S5731S-S, and S6720-HI, the set service-mode command must be run to configure the switch to work in enhanced mode.
- For the S5732-H, S6730-H, S6730S-H, S6730-S, and S6730S-S, the set service-mode command must be run to configure the switch to work in enhanced—bfd mode.
