Hello,

First of all, thank you to all who responded privatly.

As a Follow up, Brocade has identified this as a DEFECT :

"I have gone through our knowledge base and I that there is a *
defect000402393*. This defect states that BFD sessions keeps flapping for
OSPF and BGP due to early detection timer expiry. This brings the protocol
down and also flaps the protocol. Flapping is seen for BFD sessions setup
between 4x10 and 8x10 modules. This will be fixed in SW release 5.400b.

As you are using ISIS as your IGP, this should not affect you. Clearly do
that we have a problem with BFD. Please upgrade when this SW release become
available."

I wasn't able to find this defect in the KB.

Let's see how this one will play out.

Regards.

Y.
