Hi Anoop,

My earlier comment was indeed about silicon, but the packet has to go 
through the software stack as well once it gets to the CPU. Linux-based 
solutions such as Linux servers or Cumulus Linux or maybe even SONIC 
will need to have a valid IP address to process the packet. Given that 
127/8 is already mandated by MPLS BFD, sticking with that is better 
than ignoring the IP address. This is why I agreed with Jeffrey Haas' 
comment about SHOULD be set.
