-BFD SOCKET

-The following option controls the BFD daemon control socket location.
+The following options controls the BFD daemon auxiliary sockets.
.. option:: --bfdctl bfd-control-socket
Opens the BFD daemon control socket located at the pointed location.
(default: |INSTALL_PREFIX_STATE|/bfdd.sock)
+
+.. option:: --dplaneaddr <type>:<address>[<:port>]
+
+ Configure the distributed BFD data plane listening socket bind address.
+
+ One would expect the data plane to run in the same machine as FRR, so
+ the suggested configuration would be:
+
+ ``--dplaneaddr unix:/var/run/frr/bfdd_dplane.sock``
+
+ Or using IPv4:
+
+ ``--dplaneaddr ipv4:127.0.0.1``
+
+ Or using IPv6:
+
+ ``--dplaneaddr ipv6:[::1]``
+
+ It is also possible to specify a port (for IPv4/IPv6 only):
+
+ ``--dplaneaddr ipv6:[::1]:50701``
+
+ (if ommited the default port is ``50700``).
+
+ It is also possible to operate in client mode (instead of listening for
+ connections). To connect to a data plane server append the letter 'c' to
+ the protocol, example:
+
+ ``--dplaneaddr ipv4c:127.0.0.1``
