Specifying co-routed or protected return path increases robustness of BFD failure detection and reduces false positives. This document also defines a way to avoid duplicate BFD sessions currently encountered with Co-routed Bidirectional LSP and Associated Bidirectional LSP. The enhancement halves the BFD sessions over those LSPs, and allows a Co-routed Bidirectional LSPs or Associated Bidirectional LSPs to be protected and switched as a single entity.}, }
