BFD going down... from BGP timers expiring?#

AusNOG 2025 digest Program Wildcard pick 3–4 September 2025

Louis Jarasius — 5GN

Play the recording: BFD going down... from BGP timers expiring?

  • Why: The title alone signals an obscure control-plane protocol interaction (BGP timer expiry manifesting as BFD failure) — the kind of datapath/control-plane quirk worth knowing about given the PM's BGP-internals interest, and the sort of thing that bites silently in production.
  • What: Unknown — no abstract was published for this session and no materials could be extracted; the program lists title, speaker, and links only. Assessment is from the title alone.
  • How: Not determinable from available materials; the slides and video links are published and should be reviewed directly.
  • Where applicable: Appears to be a 5GN operational case study; flagged here on the strength of the topic, with the explicit caveat that the write-up could not be grounded in source material.
