Hi Jeff,

Since you brought it up to the main mailing list, who are the other folks

​I will let them speak themselves if they care ...​

​I am not going to make you do anything however since we are discussing
how best to detect NH liveness in NBMA env. we should examine all options
vs requirements for those.  ​

And one of the requirements as you have heard from at least one customer is
to test MTU of the path to such BGP next hops. Is RFC5880 BFD really best
tool for that ?

​What is there to standardize ? RFC862 seems like pretty good standard
already.

Ref: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc862

And implementing it in hardware should not be that hard too for those
concerned
not to go to RE/RP with each packet. .

Thx,
R.
