Abstract:
   This document describes procedures for using Bidirectional Forwarding
   Detection (BFD) for multipoint networks to detect data plane failures
   in Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) point-to-multipoint (p2mp)
   Label Switched Paths (LSPs) and Segment Routing (SR) point-to-
   multipoint policies with SR-MPLS data plane.

   Furthermore, this document also updates RFC 8562 and recommends the
   use of an IPv6 loopback address (:::1/128) and discourages the use of
   an IPv4 loopback address mapped to IPv6.

   It also describes the applicability of LSP Ping, as in-band, and the
   control plane, as out-band, solutions to bootstrap a BFD session.

   It also describes the behavior of the active tail for head
   notification.
