You need to have a tunnel port first and then can you enable bfd on the tunnel port. The BFD state machine in OVS will compose/send control packets through the tunnel... No OpenFlow rules are involved... We currently do not support multi-hop bfd. However, at this time, it is still unclear what kind of link (tunnel/point-to-point physical link) you want you monitor... maybe you should clarify first, Thanks, Alex Wang, > Thanks and Regards, > Padma V > > _______________________________________________ > discuss mailing list > discuss@openvswitch.org > http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss > >
