The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7880,
"Seamless Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (S-BFD)".

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: Greg Mirsky <gregimirsky@gmail.com>

Section: 6.1

Original Text
-------------
   o  bfd.SessionType: This is a new state variable that describes
      the type of a particular session.  Allowable values for S-BFD
      sessions are:

      *  SBFDInitiator - an S-BFD session on a network node that
         performs a continuity test to a target entity by sending S-BFD
         packets.

      *  SBFDReflector - an S-BFD session on a network node that listens
         for incoming S-BFD Control packets to local entities and
         generates response S-BFD Control packets.

   The bfd.SessionType variable MUST be initialized to the appropriate
   type when an S-BFD session is created.


Corrected Text
--------------
   o  bfd.SessionType: This is a new state variable that describes
      the type of a particular session.  Allowable values for S-BFD
      sessions are:

      *  SBFDNone - indicates that the BFD session is not of S-BFD type.

      *  SBFDInitiator - an S-BFD session on a network node that
         performs a continuity test to a target entity by sending S-BFD
         packets.

      *  SBFDReflector - an S-BFD session on a network node that listens
         for incoming S-BFD Control packets to local entities and
         generates response S-BFD Control packets.

   The bfd.SessionType variable MUST be set to SBFDNone when a BFD
   session other than S-BFD. The bfd.SessionType variable MUST be 
   initialized to the appropriate type when an S-BFD session is created.


Notes
-----
The original text leaves value of the new variable bfd.SessionType unspecified if the type of BFD session is other than S-BFD.
