BFD is only processed on the linecard on the GSR. For the 6500/7600 this is still done on the CPU, but it is done in the interrupt context, making it preferred over something like Fast Hellos which is handled as part of normal process scheduling.
I think there are plans to make BFD distributed on the 6500/7600 platforms, but it's not here yet. -Pete On Tue, Dec 7, 2010 at 8:16 AM, Chris Evans <[email protected]> wrote: > The command is used so that on the far end the packet doesnt get punted to > the cpu.
