Abstract:
This document proposes a mechanism to run BFD on Link Aggregation
Group (LAG) interfaces. It does so by running an independent
Asynchronous mode BFD session on every LAG member link.
This mechanism allows the verification of member link continuity,
either in combination with, or in absence of, LACP. It provides a
shorter detection time than what LACP offers. The continuity check
can also cover elements of layer 3 bidirectional forwarding.
This mechanism utilizes a well-known UDP port distinct from that of
single-hop BFD over IP. This new UDP port removes the ambiguity of
BFD over LAG packets from BFD over single-hop IP.
