Re: [nvo3] BFD over VXLAN: Trapping BFD Control packet at VTEP

[Anoop Ghanwani <[e-mail]>]

Hi Dinesh,

What would break?  If messages are trapped to CPU based on the MAC DA, what
is the problem?

On the flip side, there are implementations running BFD today which use
different addresses as specified here:
http://www.openvswitch.org/support/dist-docs/vtep.5.html
>>>

       *b**f**d**_**c**o**n**f**i**g**_**l**o**c**a**l* *:*
*b**f**d**_**d**s**t**_**i**p*: optional string
              Set to an IPv4 address to set the IP address that is expected as
              destination   for   received   BFD   packets.   The  default  is
              *1**6**9**.**2**5**4**.**1**.**0*.

>>>

Thanks,
Anoop
