Dear All,
in course of reviews of the draft, several times a question was asked about
the rationale for excluding BFD Echo from the scope of this document:

7.  Echo BFD

   Support for echo BFD is outside the scope of this document.

Much appreciate your consideration of the following options:

   - describe the applicability of BFD Echo in VXLAN environment in the
   document;
   - remove Section 7 and clarify in the Introduction

NEW TEXT:

This specification describes procedures only for BFD Asynchronous mode.


   - make no changes at all.

Regards,
Greg
