I'm not that familiar with it, but I think BFD is configured entirely through ovsdb. In that case, you could do it out of band, or you could use the experimental POX OVSDB interface to do it. It's currently in my fork (github/MurphyMc/pox experimental, I think), but it will probably be pulled into the eel branch soon.
