Furthermore, this document also updates RFC 8562 and recommends the use of an IPv6 loopback address (::1/128) and discourages the use of an IPv4 loopback address mapped to IPv6. It also describes the applicability of LSP Ping, as in-band, and the control plane, as out-band, solutions to bootstrap a BFD session. It also describes the behavior of the active tail for head notification.}, }
