Issue: IBGP BFD sessions are created as multi-hop even though peer is single-hop away. This is causing an interop issue with ICOS.
Root Cause: By design all IBGP peers are registered with BFD as multi-hop.
Fix:
• Changed the default behavior of always treating IBGP BFD sessions as mult-hop. shared_network variable is used to determine whether the IBGP peer is single hop or multi-hop away. The logic for determining whether EBGP peer is single hop or multi-hop has not been changed.
• Since the default behavior has been changed, it will cause interop issues between 2.5 and 3.0 IBGP BFD sessions. A new hidden command “bfd multihop/singlehop” has been introduced to overcome the interop issues.

Issue: “Unable to connect to socket” message keeps getting logged when ptmd process doesn’t exist.
Root Cause: BFD clients (bgpd, ospfd and ospf6d) during initialization try to register with BFD/PTM by default. This results in continuous logging If PTM does not exist since there is no max on number of retries.
Fix:
• Stop the retries to connect to PTM after max reconnect timer of 5 mins is reached.
• Added zebra debug event wrapper to message logging to prevent it from showing by default.

Issue: Addition of a new command "ptm-enable" or "no ptm-enable" per interface to enable/disable PTM link status checks for an interface.
Fix: Currently there is only one ptm-enable global command that enables/disables PTM status updates for all interfaces. This new command will give the handle to individually stop interface from reacting on the PTM status updates.
• by default interface uses the ptm-enable global configuration
• "no ptm-enable" on an interface will disable PTM status updates from taking affect for that interface. This can bring the interface up if it was brought down due to PTM status update.
• "ptm-enable" on an interface will cause the interface to fallback to the global ptm-enable configuration value and will bring the interface up or down based on the last stored PTM status update if global ptm is enabled.
