Scaling of BFD
Configure an active BFD session using one of the above methods and use same BFD neighbor while configuring
the active interface. For additional information, see
Associating BFD Neighbor Groups with the BFD Protocol,
on page 226
.
bfd-protocol
bfd nbr-group-name grp_name active-if-name if_name nexthop_address
Apply the same BFD results to one or more passive interfaces.
bfd nbr-group-name grp_name passive-if-name if_name nexthop_address
