[c-nsp] Re : Re : BFD on ASR 9000

[chams]

Hi,
it's a TengigaEthernet interface, but i'm using sub interfaces.
And, right, the bgp is UP.

So BGP is not telling BFD anything about the session it wants - "0".
Thus "show bfd session" shows nothing about it.

Odd. The eBGP session between ASR and FW is UP, right? What kind of
interface it this? I would guess (gig-)Ethernet but better ask. Vlans in
the game?
