Restrictions and guidelines: BFD configuration
By default, the device runs BFD version 1 and is compatible with BFD version 0. You cannot change the BFD version to 0 through commands. When the peer device runs BFD version 0, the local device automatically switches to BFD version 0.
After a BFD session is established, the two ends negotiate BFD parameters, including minimum sending interval, minimum receiving interval, initialization mode, and packet authentication, by exchanging negotiation packets. They use the negotiated parameters without affecting the session status.
BFD session flapping might occur on an aggregate interface with member ports on different cards. When the card that receives and sends BFD packets is removed or restarted, the backup card might not immediately take over. For example, the backup card will not take over when the card has a short detection time or a large number of BFD sessions.
