Hi Jeff,

You've said that a few times and I find it a little confusing.
"Just IP forwarding" to me would not include replying to the sender
of a BFD echo packet. ICMP yes, but I don't think BFD is a built-in
part of an IP stack in general and "just forwarding" would in general
be driven by rules wrt. the packet destination and not source.
I wonder what I'm missing?
I would also like to understand this. One of my ballot comment is related to this. This specification says the loop-back device doesn’t need to support BFD, does this mean it can be any IP forwarder? I think the answer should be yes.
