Both. For L2 transport through switches the usefulness is rather obvious. For WDM type transport because we're not 100% certain that we'll always get a link down propagated. For fiber - only for consistency, and the actual link down would normally be detected faster than BFD can react. Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sth...@nethelp.no
