This document proposes a mechanism to run BFD on Link Aggregation
Group (LAG) interfaces. It does so by running an independent BFD
async session on every LAG member link.
The mechanism allows to verify the link connectivity, either in
combination with or in absence of LACP, with a shorter detection time
than what LACP offers. The connectivity check can also cover
elements of layer 3.
A dedicated well-known UDP port is introduced that all BFD packets
over member links use to disambiguate those from ordinary BFD
packets.
