Hi Jeff, I vividly remember the original intent of the stability draft was to help debug BFD failures -- to isolate the issue at the RX or the TX side Time stamping would have helped in debugging whether the BFD packet was sent late, or whether the packet was sent on time and also arrived on time but was delayed when passing it up the BFD stack/processor (lay in the RX buffer for tad too long), etc. But then time stamping came with its own set of issues, and was hence dropped from the original draft. Can the authors send a summary on the list on why time stamping was dropped so that we're all clear on that one. The current proposal does help but is not complete. Assume that the RX end loses a BFD session and learns later that it did eventually receive the missing BFD packets (based on the seq #). How would it know which end was misbehaving? Was it a delay at the TX side, or was it the RX that delayed passing the packets to the BFD process(or). This is usually what we want to debug and i want to understand how this draft with sequence numbers can unequivocally tell me that. I believe the work is important and addresses something thats really required (spent too much time debugging why BFD flapped!). Clearly what would help is putting a small section that describes how we can use the sequence numbers to debug what and where things went wrong.
