damping (BFD Liveness Detection)

Syntax

Hierarchy Level

Description

Enable BFD session damping to dampen excess flap notifications from a BFD session that is going up and down repeatedly. BFD session damping using a merit system where each flap adds to a merit value, and once a BFD session reaches the configured merit value, notifications will be dampened. The merit value decreases by half after a configured time period, and when it falls below a configured threshold, BFD state change notifications will resume.

BFD session damping happens independently on each router locally, so BFD session configuration values should match on both ends of a BFD session to ensure consistent behavior.

Options

half-life-interval

Time duration before the accumulated merit value for a BFD session is reduced by half.

  • Default: 30 seconds

  • Range: 1 through 600 seconds

increment

Increments applied to merit value for every flap

  • Default: 1000

  • Range: 1000 through 20000

max-suppress-time

Maximum amound of time time a BFD session can be suppressed no matter how unstable it has been prior to this period of stability.

  • Default: 600 seconds

  • Range: 1 through 20000 seconds

reuse

Maximum merit value that will allow a suppressed BFD session to start notifications again.

  • Default: 1000

  • Range: 1000 through 200000

suppress

Minimum merit value that will start suppressing BFD notifications.

  • Default: 5000

  • Range: 1000 through 200000
