BFD on etherchannel running OSPF

maliha_fayyaz

we have  'WS-C6509-E' in core (VSS) connected through fiber and running OSPF on ether channel . I want to configure BFD but the option is not available under the interface port channel command. It is available under a single interface and ospf routing process command. The version running on switches are  Cisco IOS Software, s2t54 Software (s2t54-ADVIPSERVICESK9-M), Version 15.0(1)  RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc4).

Any suggestions why bfd option not available under ether channel interface

Port-channel configuration limitations are as follows: For Layer 3 port channels used by BFD, you must enable Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on the port channel. For Layer 2 port channels used by SVI sessions, you must enable LACP on the port channel. BFD is supported on SVI interfaces that are formed over virtual port channels (vPCs), vPC peer-links and FabricPath links.

On layer 2 port channel that is configured with LACP still bfd option not available
