vrouter-static-bfd-add
Currently when a static route is created, Netvisor installs a route entry in the routing information database (RIB) regardless of the reachability of the gateway. When static routes are conditional over BFD neighbor-ship formation, Netvisor alleviates this issue.
Netvisor supports static route reachability detection by using BFD protocol, and a static route entry is installed in the RIB only if BFD is able to communicate with the gateway. After installation, BFD periodically monitors reachability and removes the route if connectivity is interrupted. The Pluribus vRouter acts as a gateway, and sends out BFD hellos periodically to specified neighbors. Static BFD sessions are also configurable.
IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are both supported.
