BFD Dampening

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a detection protocol that is designed to provide fast forwarding path failure detection for encapsulations, topologies, and routing protocols. BFD provides a consistent failure detection method. BFD detects forwarding path failures at a uniform rate, rather than the variable rates for different routing protocol.
