Abstract

Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (bfd) defined in RFC5880 is comprehensive and has sufficient mechanisms to overcome challenges in surviving Graceful Restart (Planned). However, implementations with architectural limitation were found to influence a BFD failure, in a process intensive environment.This memo outlines design options to overcome the challenges, within the existing bfd framework, in surviving planned GracefulRestart.
