Excuse me ?

BFD is used on vast majority of the WAN links today as those links are not
always dark fiber such that you can detect LOS. Those WAN links are
(unfortunately) emulated circuits which require BFD to detect failure in a
reasonable time.

I hope you are not talking about IGP hellos or BGP keepalives here.

We are talking PE-P or PE-RR.

Thx,
R.
