What is the Purpose of This Test
Run this test to determine the BFD packet counters (Sent/Received).
When Can You Run This Test
Run this test if BFD is failing to come Up (or) is Down. For instructions on how to run a remote diagnostic test on Edges, see Run Remote Diagnostic Tests on Edges.
What to Check in the Test Output
Following is an example of the test output:
The Remote Diagnostics output displays the following information:
- Count of BFD control Packets Sent/Received, if either only sent or only received counter is incrementing, it indicates a problem on non-incrementing side.
- Count of Echo packets Sent/Received. The Echo mode is not supported, so ideally should be deactivated on peer too.
- Count of Session Up/Down events, confirming how many UP/Down events are seen.
- Count of Zebra notifications.
