Thanks for your reply Pshem. 
 
We have one question after reading your post; are you using WANPHY with 
transmission electronics ( like DWDM ) in-between or it is just across the a 
dark fiber cable.

Hi C-NSP Members,

We are a service provider running Cisco CRS-3 in our IP/MPLS core. Due to 
protection, we have recently added another 10Gbps
link connecting 2 Cisco CRS-3 core routers, namely CR-A and CR-B. The config 
below are on CR-A and CR-B has similar config.
Question :
1. Is this a known issue that BE interface does not support BFD ?
2. Without BFD link failure detection at ISIS level is going to be slower and 
we perceive that the convergence speed will fall back to ISIS native 
convergence speed ?
3. Is (2) the worst case and or is there any else that tend to fail ?
We are looking forward to any members who has this environment to share their 
experience in this area. Thanks.



Not exactly CRS-3, but in one deployment of ASR9k with Eth-Bundles we've used 
both WANPHY and OTU2e  in order to speed up link error detection. From what 
we've gathered for single (non-bundle) links WANPHY and OTN2e is always faster 
and what's more important can start the switchover when errors reach certain 
level, not after the link failed completely. 


kind regards
Pshem
