Hi Gorry,

Thank you for the confirmation.
I'll change the text as suggested by Dhruv to add a reference to RFC 5082.

Cheers,
Xiao Min

Hi Dhruv,

Thank you for the prompt feedback.
Please see inline.



I do think the addition of the reference helps. Thanks. 
This gives context and informs people who might like being creative with different ways to design this mechanism.

Hi Xiao,




[XM]>>> I can add the reference to RFC 5082 back to this document, if no objection from Dhruv (who had that concern). Propose to change the text as below.
OLD


All Unaffiliated BFD Echo packets for the session MUST be sent with a Time to Live (TTL) or Hop Limit value of 255, and received with a TTL or Hop Limit value of 254, otherwise the received packets MUST be dropped.NEW
All Unaffiliated BFD Echo packets for the session MUST be sent with a Time to Live (TTL) or Hop Limit value of 255, and received with a TTL or Hop Limit value of 254, otherwise the received packets MUST be dropped ([RFC5082] Appendix A).END






Dhruv: I would have been happy with rephrasing the text in such a way that referencing 5082 made sense. Would this be better - 


"All Unaffiliated BFD Echo packets for the session MUST be sent with a Time to Live (TTL) or Hop Limit value of 255. Received packets MUST have a TTL or Hop Limit value of 254 (similar to Appendix A of [RFC5082] to verify against a configured number of hops); otherwise, the received packets MUST be dropped."[XM]>>> Yes, your text looks better to me. How about Jeff and Gorry?
