Configuring BFD Next-Hop Verification

To enable BFD next hop verification between two adjacent peers, you configure each peer as follows:

1. Configure peer A with the next hop address of peer B along with the desired intervals and keyword options.
   host1(config)#ip route 192.1.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.1.2.1 verify bfd-liveness-detection minimum-interval 500 multiplier 3 last-resort
2. Configure peer B with the next hop address of peer A along with the desired intervals and keyword options.
   host1(config)#ip route 192.1.2.1 255.255.255.0 192.1.1.0 verify bfd-liveness-detection minimum-interval 300 multiplier 3
