Since I'll miss the call on Monday, here is an update on the BFD for LAG
situation.

The BFD sent 802.1 a liaison on 9/25 https://datatracker.ietf.org/liaison/1192/
setting out the progress and continuing the communication.

The authors of the BFD for LAGs work have posted several updates, the latest at
http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mmm-bfd-on-lags/
Note that this work is still currently not official BFD working group work.

However, a re-charter of the BFD working group was considered by the IESG,
reviewed by the IETF community, and advertised on the New Work mailing list on
10/16. This change in the charter was approved by the IESG today (10/25) and
includes the following text:

> 5. Provide one or more mechanisms to run BFD over Link Aggregation
> Group Interfaces.

...and...

> The working group will maintain a relationship with the KARP and
> MPLS working groups, and will communicate with the IEEE with
> respect to BFD over LAGs.

...so I expect that the working group will adopt a draft to work on soon, and I
predict they will be in touch with 802.1 again in due course.

Have a good call.

Cheers,
Adrian
