Hello Gerd and Chams, > My guess is that your unnamed firewall doesn't do BFD...
that is problem #2 ;-) - but it still should show up with "show bfd session" on the ASR9k as a DOWN session. The eBGP session must be non-multihop, i.e. it must be between the addresses of the link ASR9k--FW. I assume this is what you mean with point-to-point? BFD really doesn't know anything about "i" or "e"-BGP. All it requires is a "bfd fast-detect" line under the BGP neighbor. What is "show bfd client" showing?
