Displays Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) information.
Privileged EXEC mode
The show bfd command displays the following information:
| Output field | Description | 
|---|---|
| BFD State | Specifies whether BFD is enabled or disabled on the device. | 
| Version | Specifies the version of the BFD protocol operating on the device. | 
| Supported Protocols | Specifies the protocols that are registered for the particular session. | 
| Current | The number of hardware and software BFD sessions operating on the device. | 
| Max Allowed | The maximum number of BFD sessions that are allowed on the device. The maximum number of sessions supported on a device is 250. | 
| Max Exceeded Count | The number of times the request to set up a BFD session was declined because it would have resulted in exceeding the maximum number of BFD sessions allowed on the device. | 
| Port | The port on which BFD is enabled. Entry for a port is displayed only if it has at least one session on that interface. | 
| MinTx | The interval in milliseconds during which the device sends a BFD message from this port to its peer. | 
| MinRx | The interval in milliseconds during which the device receives a BFD message from its peer on this port. | 
| Mult | The number of times that the device waits for the MinRx time on this port before determining that its peer device is nonoperational. | 
| Sessions | The number of BFD sessions originating on this port. | 
The following example displays typical information.
