Release Information

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 8.2.

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 9.0 for EX Series switches.

Support for BFD authentication introduced in Junos OS Release 9.6.

Statement introduced in Junos OS Release 12.1 for the QFX Series.

Description

Specify the transmit interval for the bfd-liveness-detection statement. The negotiated transmit interval for a peer is the interval between the sending of BFD packets to peers. The receive interval for a peer is the minimum time that it requires between packets sent from its peer; the receive interval is not negotiated between peers. To determine the transmit interval, each peer compares its configured minimum transmit interval with its peer's minimum receive interval. The larger of the two numbers is accepted as the transmit interval for that peer.

The remaining statements are explained separately.
