Hi Reshad,
thank you for the question. Here's my reasoning:

   - only Required Min Echo RX Interval is present in RFC 5880 and it
   allows to indicate not only the smallest interval between consecutive BFD
   Echo packets but whether system supports BFD Echo function at all;
   - since BFD Echo may be transmitted only when the session state is Up,
   operator is fully equipped to learn the value of Required Min Echo RX
   Interval of its BFD peer and to set Echo transmit interval accordingly;
   - requesting BFD Echo, in my opinion, is no different from requesting IP
   ping or LSP ping.

Hence my conclusion - transmit interval for BFD Echo is more suitable in
RPC then as configuration parameter.

Regards,
Greg
