Hi Maik,

Here is a proposed new text, let me know if it fits your comment :


"Service providers often perform manual link shutdown (using router
   CLI) to perform some network changes/tests.  A manual link shutdown
   may be done at multiple level : physical interface, logical
   interface, IGP interface, BFD session ...  Especially testing or
   troubleshooting FRR requires to perform the manual shutdown on the
   remote end of the link as generally a local shutdown would not
   trigger FRR.

To enhance such situation, an implementation SHOULD
   support triggering/activating LFA Fast Reroute for a given link when
   a manual shutdown is done on a component that currently supports FRR
   activation.

   For example :

   o  if an implementation supports FRR activation upon BFD session down
      event, this implementation SHOULD support FRR activation when a
      manual shutdown is done on the BFD session.  But if an
      implementation does not support FRR activation on BFD session
      down, there is no need for this implementation to support FRR
      activation on manual shutdown of BFD session.

   o  if an implementation supports FRR activation on physical link down
      event (e.g.  Rx laser Off detection, or error threshold raised
      ...), this implementation SHOULD support FRR activation when a
      manual shutdown at physical interface is done.  But if an
      implementation does not support FRR activation on physical link
      down event, there is no need for this implementation to support
      FRR activation on manual physical link shutdown.

Hi,

as stated in section 4.2
<snip>

 To enhance such situation, an implementation SHOULD

   support triggering/activating LFA Fast Reroute for a given link when

   a manual shutdown is done.

</snip>





The triggering of a FRR could also happen by BFD in some implementations. The 
last sentence should be more generalized or even get more details. What exactly 
should a "shutdown" trigger? For e.g. a tx-laser off on local side -> triggers 
LFA on remote side.

Abstract:
   Loop Free Alternates (LFA), as defined in RFC 5286 is an IP Fast
   ReRoute (IP FRR) mechanism enabling traffic protection for IP traffic
   (and MPLS LDP traffic by extension).  Following first deployment
   experiences, this document provides operational feedback on LFA,
   highlights some limitations, and proposes a set of refinements to
   address those limitations.  It also proposes required management
   specifications.

   This proposal is also applicable to remote LFA solution.
