[Last-Call] Secdir last call review of draft-ietf-bfd-unaffiliated-echo-11

Reviewer: Stephen Farrell
Review result: Has Issues

I'm not sure if this is a real issue or not. If not, which is quite possible, 
then this'd be ready.

I wondered if this setup might create potential reflection attacks, but am
not sure. The attack might happen if bad-device-A sends packets to B, as if
those are from real-A, and then B sends those back to real-A. If that could
happen, it would seem like a reflection attack vector that could be part of
a DoS. If that can't happen, it might be no harm to say why in the security
considerations section.
