new feature requests that are specific to BFD in NMS

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a fast fault detection mechanism based on RFC 5880. After a BFD session is established between two systems. 

We want to monitor the status of the bfd protocol configured on cisco devices through sevone. Can we do this?

    Hello,

    We want to check back to see if you were successful in requesting a new Device certification that can help you monitor the BFD protocol on your Cisco devices.. If that has been done, I can go ahead and mark this idea request as 'Feature already exists'

    Thank you.

    Hello,

    This is possible today since the BFD MIB is readily available for Cisco devices that have BFD configured to monitor Layer 3 connections.
    The MIB to use would be CISCO-IETF-BFD-MIB. Please open a Device Certification support case to get this MIB added to your Device cert and ask that you want to monitor BFD metrics.
    You will then be provided with a Certificaiton file that will enable you to monitor different BFD sessions and it's associated statistics.
