Out of curiosity, would you be able to explain what your use case is? I gather you don’t have a BFD partner on the ‘other end’ of the layer 2 link? And that you are going across some sort of layer 3 network? And if that is a multi-hop l3 network, don’t things get a bit dicey in terms of time-outs, possible changes in packet flows, etc? -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-discuss
