Multiple BFD sessions over one path
Hi,
After reading the two drafts (draft-ietf-bfd-generic-05 and
draft-ietf-bfd-v4v6-1hop-09), I have some confusion about the session
limitation over a specific network-layer path.
Section 2 of draft-ietf-bfd-v4v6-1hop-09 says:
"Each BFD session between a pair of systems MUST traverse a separate
network-layer path in both directions..."
But section 6 of draft-ietf-bfd-generic-05 says:
"...if multiple differentiated services [DIFFSERV] are being operated over
IPv4, an independent BFD session may be run for each service level...", this
implicates that there may be mulitiple BFD sessions over one
network-layer(ipv4) path, but it seems that this is not allowed in
draft-ietf-bfd-v4v6-1hop-09. How to understand this conflict? or do I miss
something?
Best regards,
Mach Chen
