C&P some texts from the earlier mail that got short circuited.. -- We recommend that for the purpose of networks that want to take advantage of Eligibility mechanism for intent verification especially for fault detection scheme, the e2e fault detection Timers are kept more aggressive than local link fault detection timers. This is a better choice than turning off TI-LFA at each node. For example - 1hop timers at 10 ms interval with 3 miss and s-bfd at 5ms interval or 10ms with 2 miss. This is just an example. It’s a choice, if one wants e2e protection to take higher precedence over local protection. As I mentioned, this behavior is more preferable to transport centric service providers that we have talked to. --
I believe this addresses your comments below. Do note that we have successfully deployed this solution in running networks for multiple years.

Consider the usual multi-layer OAM arrangement. Link failure detection is within 10 ms using 3.3 ms intervals. You stressed that e2e uses more aggressive network failure detection. Would that be based on 1 ms intervals for multi-hop BFD? AFAIK, in the usual multi-layer OAM, the e2e network failure detection is based on 100 ms to ensure that the local protection mechanism can converge without firing e2e recovery. However, in the case of the inverse multi-layer OAM you presented, it appears that both recovery mechanisms, i.e., local and e2e, will be deployed. In my opinion, that is inefficient, confusing, and unnecessary. Am I missing something here?
