Title : Path validation toward BGP next-hop with AUTO-BFD
Authors : Jerome Durand

Filename : draft-jdurand-auto-bfd-00.txt
Pages : 8

Abstract:
This document describes a solution called AUTO-BFD, that
automatically initiates BFD sessions for BGP next-hops. This makes
it possible to avoid blackholing scenarios when a BGP peer is not the
BGP next-hop, especially on Internet eXchange Points (IXPs) when BGP
Route-Servers are deployed. When they are configured with this
mechanism, routers can automatically try to establish a new adjacency
for every new BGP next-hop. BGP routes are then checked against the
state of the BFD session for the corresponding next-hop.
