GIM>> Can you clarify how BFD or S-BFD can monitor an SR Policy? As defined
in RFC 5880, the scope of BFD is:

   a protocol intended to detect faults in the
   bidirectional path between two forwarding engines, including
   interfaces, data link(s), and to the extent possible the forwarding
   engines themselves, with potentially very low latency.

At the same time, I believe that an SR policy can be monitored using LSP
Ping with the corresponding Target FEC.
