Dual-core switch BFD
Home / Dual-core switch BFD
BFD detects forwarding path failures across various media types, encapsulations, topologies, and routing protocols. It provides subsecond failure detection between two adjacent devices, distributing some load onto the data plane on supported modules. BFD simplifies network profiling and planning by offering predictable reconvergence time. The Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol is a simple hello mechanism that detects failures in a network. If the original VSS If Flex Links are configured on the VSS, we recommend using the PAgP detection method.
