[j-nsp] BFD recommended timers for IGP and iBGP

Hello, Are there any recommended timers for IGP and iBGP when running BFD. Would like to know what others are running on their production sites. --tim ___ juniper-nsp mailing list juniper-nsp@puck.nether.net https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/jun

Yeah slightly baffling that one - all these Ethernet devices that only pass payloads of arp, ipv4 and ipv6, or to normal unicast addresses. No-one has ever given me a good explanation of what this kit *is* doing with these frames... (talking about passing .ag here of course - not participating,

BFD on the IGP session would be the best option. We currently run ours at 300x3 on Juniper boxes and lower on some other platforms with better hardware processing of BFD packets. If you are using aggregates something like 802.3ah may work better as BFD control traffic has a tendency to just t
