Hi Anil,

OSPF and OSPFv3 graceful restart pre-dated BFD so this wasn’t explicitly covered. However, given that the intension is that the data plane is preserved during restart, an implementation could interpret this as a topology change and terminate helper mode as documented in section 3.2 of RFC 3623.
Hope this helps,
Acee

Subject: [OSPF] OSPF GR and BFD operability

Hi,

I need clarification on the behavior when BFD notifies remote inactivity for a OSPF session, when OSPF neighbor is undergoing Graceful restart? OSPF router in helper mode will ideally inactivate the restarting neighbor only after grace period, and if BFD notifies neighbor down to OSPF, should the adjacency be terminated? If not, will it cause a blackhole for the entire grace period if the neighbor is actually down?

Appreciate if you can help here.

Regards,
Anil
