Subject: [pim] PIM bidir Offer_Period on long delay links

Hi,

The draft-ietf-pim-bidir-07.txt states an Offer_Period of 100ms.
Is bidir applicable on long delay links like satcom (RTT ~600ms)?

Another remark on the draft text, it doesn't define the tiebreaker on DF
election with equal metrics for the offered RPA.
The PIM-SM assert (section 4.6.3.) definition could be used in this case
also, but I think it's better to update the text in the bidir specification
specifying PIM-SM Assert rules in all cases.

Regards,
Teco Boot
