Hi Gyan, Please see inline.

Once the session is up per RFC 588O the session switches to Demand mode with D bit and initiate Poll sequence P bit and F bit in the control packet. So as Demand mode uses Poll sequence for liveliness detection and not default asynchronous mode it is not applicable. <RR> Demand mode can be used once the session is up, even if unsolicited procedure is used.
Agreed. Should we state in the unsolicited BFD specification that they are not applicable. <RR> If it makes things clearer, we can add statements/text to the document. Also I believe multihop BFD would be applicable. Should that be stated in the specification. <RR> As per my last reply, yes. Regards,Reshad.

This is orthogonal to use of demand mode or echo mode in BFD (which can be used once the sessions are up, whether "unsolicited BFD" has been used or not). S-BFD has its own procedures for bring-up, and unsolicited BFD only applies to classical BFD (RFC5880). This is mentioned in the introduction. Regards,Reshad.

Also could it be applied to RFC 5880 demand mode? I will review through the draft again for any further comments. Many Thanks Gyan On Sun, Feb 13, 2022 at 12:04 PM Reshad Rahman <res...@yahoo.com> wrote: Hi Gyan, Apologies for the delay and thanks for the feedback. The document is applicable to single-hop and multi-hop. In the next revision, we will clarify this and extend the YANG model to include multi-hop. The "unsolicited BFD" procedure allows a BFD session to be initiated only by 1 side. Once that BFD session is up, demand mode may or may not kick in, just like for RFC5880 BFD. So unsolicited BFD and demand mode are orthogonal. The procedures in this document apply to RFC5880, aka classical, BFD. S-BFD session bringup is different, requires sharing S-BFD discriminators etc (as mentioned in the Introduction). Wrt which RFCs are updated by this document: we need to add 9127 (or 9127-bis).

Is this draft applicability for single hop, multi hop, demand and S-BFD sessions. Also what RFC’s does this draft update?
