Hi All, The authors will work on and share the updated text to review with the WG.
Quickly want to point out that the draft does not bring any new requirements in BFD for link quality monitoring; the stability issues that we are discussing are related to BFD sessions going down due to intermittent packet loss. If/when BFD WG brings any new enhancements, protocols like OSPF will obviously leverage the same.
