www.dell.com | support.dell.com Configuring Protocol Liveness Protocol Liveness is a feature that notifies the BFD Manager when a client protocol is disabled. When a client is disabled, all BFD sessions for that protocol are torn down. Neighbors on the remote system receive an Admin Down control packet and are placed in the Down state (Message 3). To enable Protocol Liveness: Step 1 Task Enable Protocol Liveness Command Syntax bfd protocol-liveness Command Mode CONFIGURATION Troubleshooting BFD Examine control packet field values using the command debug bfd detail. The following example shows a three-way handshake using this command.
