Abstract:
   Some BFD implementations may be restricted to only support several
   interval values.  When such BFD implementations speak to each other,
   there is a possibility of two sides not being able to find a common
   interval value to run BFD sessions.

   This document defines a small set of interval values for BFD that we
   call "Common intervals", and recommends implementations to support
   the defined intervals.  This solves the problem of finding an
   interval value that both BFD speakers can support while allowing a
   simplified implementation as seen for hardware-based BFD.  It does
   not restrict an implementation from supporting more intervals in
   addition to the Common intervals.
