Hi Aditya, et al, 

As requested by the chairs, I'm reposting my comments on the subject draft. 

Given the large amount of changes to the VRRP protocol for this, it would be 
good to document the use cases for more than 3 VRRP routers participating in 
the same Virtual Router (same LAN segment and VRID). 

What I suggested to satisfy the requirement to use BFD was to use RFC 9468 to 
establish P2P sessions between the backup routers and the active router. 
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9468/

I agree that pre-computing the best backup router ahead of time could reduce 
the election by allowing the elimination of the jitter. I also agree that this 
solution minimizes the number of BFD sessions. 

In the event of both the active and best backup failing you will have a long 
recovery time. I don't recall if this case is covered, but at some point, the 
other backup candidates should take over with a jitter. 

Thanks,
Acee
