Hi Les,

An implementation is free to introduce a delay (as > you suggest) before such signaling. > My reading of section 6.2 of RFC5880 clearly indicates that BFD is signalling UP state when BFD session has been established without any delay. I am not sure if BFD implementation is free to introduce any delay there yet still to claim full compliance to RFC5880 (even if technically it would make sense to have such delay). Quote: Up state means that the BFD session has successfully been established, and implies that connectivity between the systems is working. The session will remain in the Up state until either connectivity fails or the session is taken down administratively. Rgs, Robert. >
