Thanks Marc,
I'm just picking this old thread because my question is in this context,
could you please let me know names of vendors and products of these "8k-16k
BFD sessions per linecard" systems? I'm interested in software/hardware
specifications of such high end systems.
Is it cisco? I googled but could not find any.

Regards
-Lokesh

--001a11c2e73ea5593304e470060f
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi,

Following is my understanding on why echo mode is required.

Because RFC 5880 does not mandate route lookup for control packets in
asynchronous mode, there can be implementations that just build BFD packet
and transmit directly on connected network interfaces without doing route
lookup for peer device. Hence echo mode is provided to test real routing by
mandating that control packet should be transmitted to peer by looping it
via forwarding plane that tests existence of route to peer machine.

Is it correct? or is there any other requirement that is kept in mind while
proposing echo mode.


Regards
-Lokesh

No, echo is not about control packets (in the sense of BFD control 
packets). And there is, similar to control packets, no requirement how 
router A originates the echo packet to router B (the peer). This can be 
again a transmission directly on the wire.


There are many motivations for echo. The echo packet traverses the 
"full" hardware path on the peer, it does a "routing lookup" on the 
peer - the exact meaning is implementation specific - and it allows to 
put the burden of fast detection on the router that requires it (and 
not the peer), in case of asymmetric detection times. And a few more 
things.


Regards, Marc

Thanks Marc,
I'm just picking this old thread because my question is in this context,
could you please let me know names of vendors and products of these "8k-16k=
 BFD sessions per linecard" systems? I'm interested in software/hardware sp=

Is it cisco? I googled but could not find any.

Actually this particular vendor you mention supports 15msec for high-end eq=

there is no single number, too many network designs out there in real life.=
 In the core customers typically go fast, to the endpoints some customers g=

Yep.  And among the "more things" are the ability to do proprietary =
things in the echo protocol (since it is a private matter to the =
originating machine) and less work for the receiving end (perhaps handy =
when the receiving machine has a large fan-in).

Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

Hi

I am looking at bfdSessUp & bfdSessDown notifications. Draft mentions the
below.
             "For the
             cases where a contiguous range of sessions
             have transitioned into the up(4) state at roughly
             the same time, the device SHOULD issue a single
             notification for each range of contiguous indexes in
             an effort to minimize the emission of a large number
             of notifications."

What is considered as roughly the same time? How long should the
implementation wait in order to combine the status changes of multiple
sessions, before generating a notification?

If I assume that the implementation should wait for some amount of time,
the following problem exists.  Suppose there are sessions with indexes 1,
2, 3. All of them move to UP state within the waiting time.  Before expiry
of waiting time, if session index 2 quickly moves to DOWN, then again to
UP,  bfdSessUp trap will be generated first for session indexes 1,2,3.
After this, bfdSessDown will be generated for session index 2.  The result
is: the order of traps was reversed (With optimization, the order is UP,
then DOWN trap.  But without optimization, the order would be UP, DOWN, UP)

Please let me know if I am missing something.

Thanks
Rajasekar

Hi Rajesekar,

Unless implementation wants to intentionally suppress rapid state change(s)=
 and back to original state, it would be incorrect to "fuse" same state for=
 same index, meaning there'll be two "up" traps for index 2 whether you opt=
imize or not.

Without optimization:
- There will be 5 traps.
- 1-up, 2-up, 3-up, 2-down, 2-up

With optimization:
- There will be 3 traps.
- 1-2-3-up, 2-down, 2-up

In general, I would guess that operators do not want the "wait" to be more =
than a second, two at the most.
