Unaffiliated BFD Echo packets back to A. As Erik Auerswald has
indicated, this kind of DoS attack can happen without Unaffiliated
BFD Echo, i.e., this kind of DoS attack is irrelevant to
Unaffiliated BFD Echo.

Well, in that case ISTM the potential DoS is not dealt with
properly in this spec. That's I guess a thing the IESG can
handle, so we don't need to bottom out on it between us.

So IMHO what we can do is to ask the real-A
to include some form of authentication.

I don't really get what you're saying there, sorry, as there
is no point in "including some form of authentication" unless
a relevant party validates that. Again though, the IESG can
figure this out so we don't need to.

Cheers,
S.
