Title: Unaffiliated BFD Echo Authors: Weiqiang Cheng Ruixue Wang Xiao Min Reshad Rahman Raj Chetan Boddireddy Name: draft-ietf-bfd-unaffiliated-echo-09.txt Pages: 12 Dates: 2023-09-26 Abstract: Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) is a fault detection protocol that can quickly determine a communication failure between two forwarding engines. This document proposes a use of the BFD Echo where the local system supports BFD but the neighboring system does not support BFD. BFD Control packet and its processing procedures can be executed over the BFD Echo port where the neighboring system only loops packets back to the local system. This document updates RFC 5880.
