RFC 6213: IS-IS BFD-Enabled TLV

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

This document describes a type-length-value (TLV) for use in the IS-IS routing protocol that allows for the proper use of the Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD) protocol. There exist certain scenarios in which IS-IS will not react appropriately to a BFD-detected forwarding plane failure without use of either this TLV or some other method. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
