On the BIRD box, set this in sysctl.conf:

    net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range="49152 65535"

BIRD config:

    protocol bfd bfd1 {
        interface "xxxx";
    }

    protocol bgp neighbor1 {
        [ ... ]
        bfd on;
    }

On the Juniper side something like this:

    job at eunetworks-1.router.nl.coloclue.net> show configuration protocols bgp group internal-ipv4 neighbor 94.142.247.237 bfd-liveness-detection
    minimum-interval 10;
    multiplier 5;
    transmit-interval {
        minimum-interval 100;
    }

Kind regards,
