The draft describes the use of the BFD protocol with Geneve tunnels. The draft
is well-written and clear. As someone not familiar with either BFD or Geneve I
had one question. The security considerations section references RFC8926 but
not RFC5880. Should it reference RFC5880? In particular, the authentication
mechanisms in 5880 seem potentially worth mentioning, even if only to discount
their use.
