Hi,

I'm trying to set up BFD between two vlans created on different bridges running on different hosts. I noticed that unless bfd:bfd_remote_dst_mac is specified while setting up the BFD, the packet never leaves the host switch due to "skipping output to input port". Looking at RFC 5880/5881, there is no specification about the encapsulating packet itself, so I reckon this should be implementation dependent. I'm wondering if it makes sense to have a dummy (default) mac address as rmt_eth_dst so that bfd_should_process_flow does not flag the outgoing as something to be processed as a received packet? Thoughts? If so, I can send over a patch..

Thanks,
Sabya
