Thanks Babaji for your response!

The configuration for bfd is shown as below. (bfd echo mode)

1. interface xxxx

      ip ospf bfd

      no ip redirects

     ip ospf network point-to-point

   bfd interval 50 min_rx 50 multip 3

2. router ospf 1

      bfd

 

 

I will run lab and check the value. 

I run lab and I see hoddown (hits) always 0 (0) except the case the BFD is missing then the holddown will start count. 
so can I see 
show bfd neighbor detail 

Hi MHM,, what you describe about holddown (hit) is correct. but my question is the value of the holddown under echo mode. We set the bfd hello /tx interval and min_rx interval to 50 , and multiplier is set to 3. finally this values are shown as below: the holddown value is 6000ms (6s), but hello interval is 50ms with multiplier 3, then how bfd works to judge the failure? 3 hello packets : 50ms x 3? Please advise, thanks.
