Subject: Interop Required for Routing with BFD

Hi,

I have a question wrt Interoperability of routing protocols support in BFD.

Cisco (or some other vendor) supports BFD with BGP and I am not sure
if it is based on any specific standard. I believe its a simple
implementation of draft-ietf-bfd-base-05.txt.

The question is, if I implement the generic BFD standard for layer-3,
when used with BGP or RIP would it be interoperable with the Cisco (or
any other vendor) implementation?

Thanks,
Abhishek
