Hi,

Hi,

This is called uRPF for "unicast RPF" as opposed to the multicast RPF check this is based on.

Thank you for the correction.  :-)

Indeed uRPF should allow that packet, as the source address is found off the receiving interface (usually via a directly attached network).

*nod*

That could be done via ACLs, but would be unusual AFAIK. The uRPF functionality itself should not interfere.

I agree that this would be atypical.

As I type this, I wonder if there might be any problems related to uRPF /sending/ the BFD-EM packet. I think it's going to need to be sent in such a way as to bypass the local routing stack.

But that's on a system that I control and I have options to overcome any local limitations. }:-)
