The IESG has received a request from the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection WG (bfd) to consider the following document: - 'Seamless Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (S-BFD)' <draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base-08.txt> as Proposed Standard
The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the i...@ietf.org mailing lists by 2016-04-12. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to i...@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract This document defines a simplified mechanism to use Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) with large portions of negotiation aspects eliminated, thus providing benefits such as quick provisioning as well as improved control and flexibility to network nodes initiating the path monitoring. This document updates RFC5880. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-bfd-seamless-base/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2402/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2107/
