Description
In an effort to land basic BFD support for release 6, we are forgoing parameter changes to running sessions in
- #4852
This is an issue to follow up on and implement parameter changes.
For now, a workaround is deleting and re-creating a session with different parameters.

Research direction
Start by reviewing issue #4852 and the existing BFD session handling for release 6. Identify which running-session parameters need to be mutable and how updates should differ from the documented delete-and-recreate workaround; done means parameter changes work without recreating the session and are covered by the relevant tests.
