Hi Acee, could you please help me to understand what you see in draft-ietf-rtgwg-vrrp-p2mp-bfd <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-rtgwg-vrrp-p2mp-bfd/> as the requirement for existence of p2mp-sr-tree between VRRP routers? IP encapsulation of BFD Control packets is the same as of VRRP messages described in Section 7.2 of RFC 9568 <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9568> with only difference that BFD uses UDP. What am I missing?
