Hi Les,
thank you for bringing the real-life scenarios to the discussion. In your
opinion, what prevents an operator from monitoring a remote PE using a
multi-hop BFD? Do you have an estimated number of such sessions each PE
must handle? What could be the required guaranteed failure detection time?

Best regards,
Greg
