    Abstract: In one embodiment, a plurality of links between a network node and another network node are configured as a link bundle. The network node establishes one or more standby bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) sessions. Each standby BFD session is associated with one or more links of the link bundle. The network node establishes an active BFD session. The active BFD session is associated with one or more links of the link bundle. In response to non-receipt of returned BFD messages for the active BFD session, one or more new active BFD sessions are selected from the one or more standby BFD sessions. In response to non-receipt of returned BFD messages for the one or more new active BFD sessions, it is determined that the link bundle has failed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a local network device transmits a connectivity verification protocol control message over a link to a remote network device to attempt to establish a connectivity verification protocol session with the remote network device. In response to non-receipt of a returned connectivity verification protocol control message from the remote network device, the local network device determines that there is an inability to establish a connectivity verification protocol session with the remote network device. The local network device then sends a connectivity verification protocol echo message over the link to the remote network device without establishment of a connectivity verification protocol session. The echo message is sent using a forwarding protocol. In response to receipt of a reply to the connectivity verification protocol echo message from the remote network device, the local network device determines that the forwarding protocol is functioning and uses the link to forward data traffic to the remote network device.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a connectivity verification protocol (CVP) session for a particular virtual interface (VI) may operate on a particular group of two or more line cards (LCs) on a network device. The group of LCs may then transmit CVP session packets, at a reduced rate that is sufficient to maintain the CVP session based on a negotiated CVP full rate, onto the particular VI through ingress path processing on the network device. Ingress path processing, in particular, takes transmitted CVP session packets and egresses them onto an appropriate LC of the network device currently responsible for the VI egress. Also, in response to receiving CVP session packets for the VI on an LC of the network device currently responsible for the VI ingress, the receiving LC may forward the received CVP session packets to the particular corresponding group of LCs, which may then process the received CVP session packets.
