BFD

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a network protocol designed to detect faults between two forwarding engines, allowing for rapid failure detection on networks. BFD provides low-overhead, short interval detection to meet the requirements of high-availability network systems. This article discusses BFD's operational mechanics, key use cases, and how it complements various routing protocols.
