"running in forwarding plane".

<RR> The BFD implementation I worked on many years ago was distributed to 
linecards for SH (for scale) but was not "offloaded", in that there was no h/w 
assist.

A good distinction.  Juniper has implementations that run on the "linecard CPU" 
and some that are built into the ASIC.

I don't know whether it's worth distinguishing the variants in the model.  For 
both of these cases, Juniper calls it "distributed".  However, "running on the 
linecards/forwarding plane" is a reasonable approximation.
