Hello Shahram, At the terminating VTEP, VxLAN information is used to consume the BFD packet. In other words, a BFD session increases the confidence of the existence of the VNI-Forwarding Domain mapping and the presence of valid VTEP termination configuration at the terminating VTEP. At the originating VTEP, it is a matter of implementation of how many VxLAN tables are exercised in the datapath (am aware of at least one implementation where it is being exercised to a considerable extent).

Thx Shahram
