I've been asked to re-review this document on behalf of the OPS Directorate. I'm pleased to say my previous issues have resolved. Thanks! I do have a couple additional questions, though. First, the document is unclear on whether mixed mode operation is supported. That is, would it be okay with I have a VRRP group with two of the three routers supporting p2mp BFD but the third does not? I think some text on this scenario might be helpful to operators. Second, what scaling concerns exist in a multi-tenant environment where there may be multiple VRRP groups per segment, each maintaining their own p2mp BFD sessions? I don't think either of this questions are blocking, but I do think operators would appreciate some guidance on both. I found one additional nit, too: Section 1.1.1 still has "Pont-to-Multipoint" instead of "Point-to-Multipoint."
