To view session parameters, use the show bfd neighbors detail command, as shown in the
example in Displaying BFD for BGP Information.

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 final 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.
ROUTER-OSPFv3 mode
no bfd all-neighbors
• Disable BFD sessions with OSPFv3 neighbors on a single interface.
INTERFACE mode
ipv6 ospf bfd all-neighbors disable
Configure BFD for IS-IS
When using BFD with IS-IS, the IS-IS protocol registers with the BFD manager on the RPM. BFD sessions
are then established with all neighboring interfaces participating in IS-IS. If a neighboring interface fails,
the BFD agent on the line card notifies the BFD manager, which in turn notifies the IS-IS protocol that a
link state change occurred.
Configuring BFD for IS-IS is a two-step process:
1. Enable BFD globally.
2. Establish sessions for all or particular IS-IS neighbors.
