RE: Query: BGP fall-over

eBGP holdtime still applies (180 sec). The fallover works great on serial (point to point) because the interface will down on BOTH sides of the eBGP peering but for Ethernet, not the case because it's Ethernet (multipoint)....

Subject: Query: BGP fall-over

Hi,

I have bgp configured & running on two routers connected through a switch. I
have the BGP Fast Peering Session Deactivation configured on both sides.
I also have ospf configured on the interfaces.

Even when i shut one of the interfaces the bgp session is not terminated
for 180 secs.
The ospf goes down but nothing really happens with bgp.

Am I missing something. Please advice.

Thanks,
Vibs
