peer bfd block (BGP multi-instance VPN instance IPv4 address family view)

Function

The peer bfd block command prevents a peer from inheriting the BFD function of its peer group.

The undo peer bfd block command restores the default configuration.

By default, a peer inherits the BFD function from its peer group.

Format

peer ipv4-address bfd block

undo peer ipv4-address bfd block

Parameters

Parameter Description Value
ipv4-address

Specifies the IPv4 address of a peer.

The value is in dotted decimal notation

Views

Default Level

2: Configuration level

Usage Guidelines

Usage Scenario

BFD provides millisecond-level fault detection. It helps BGP to detect faults in neighboring devices or links more quickly, and instructs BGP to recalculate routes for correct packet forwarding. If a peer group is configured with BFD, all members of the peer group will establish BFD sessions. The peer bfd block command can be used to prevent a peer from inheriting the BFD function from its peer group.

Prerequisites

A BFD session has been established.

Configuration Impact

After the peer bfd block command is run on a peer, the corresponding BFD session on the peer is deleted. As a result, fast link fault detection cannot be implemented.

Precautions

The peer bfd block command and the peer bfd enable command are mutually exclusive. After the peer bfd block command is run, related BFD sessions are automatically deleted.

Example
