Abstract

This document specifies extensions to RFC4271 BGP-4 that enable a BGP speaker to negotiate additional Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) extensions using a BGP capability. This BFD capability enables a BGP speaker to prevent a BGP session from being established until a BFD session is established. It is referred to as BGP BFD "strict- mode". BGP BFD strict-mode will be supported when both the local speaker and its remote peer are BFD strict-mode capable.
