Greg,
   This statement does not say multiple BFD session on the "same interface" 
between two system right? It just says that we can have multiple BFD session 
between two systems probably on different interface who are directly connected. 
In this case you can still have interface as a key to identify initial BFD 
packet.


Thanks

Subject: Multiple BFD sessions between the same pair of end-points

Dear All,
I think that this paragraph from Section 2 of RFC 5881 prohibits multiple 
single-hop BFD sessions between the same pair of end points:
   Each BFD session between a pair of systems MUST traverse a separate
   network-layer path in both directions.  This is necessary for
   demultiplexing to work properly, and also because (by definition)
   multiple sessions would otherwise be protecting the same path.

                Regards,
                                Greg
