   This document proposes a mechanism to run BFD on Link Aggregation
   Group (LAG) interfaces.  It does so by running an independent BFD
   session on every LAG member link.

   A dedicated well-known multicast IP address for both IPv4 and IPv6 is
   introduced as the destination IP address of the BFD packets when
   running BFD on the member links of the LAG.

   There is currently no standard that describes how BFD should run on
   LAG interfaces.  As a result multiple non-interoperable BFD
   implementations for LAG interfaces exist.  This draft provides a
   short overview as a context for the new proposed mechanism.
