Abstract:
This document describes a BFD Optimized Authentication Mode,
Meticulous Keyed ISAAC Authentication. This mode can be used to
authenticate some BFD packets with less CPU time cost than using MD5
or SHA1, with the tradeoff of decreased security. This mechanism
cannot be used to signal state changes, but it can be used to
maintain a session in the Up state.
