Hi,

We have posted the draft-ietf-bfd- version for authenticating BFD using SHA2 algorithms.

This is very similar to what has been done for OSPFv2, IS-IS, OSPFv3, and other routing protocols.

Cheers, Manav

This document describes how Hashed Message Authentication Mode (HMAC) 
in conjunction with the SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512 algorithms can 
be used for authenticating Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD). 
It uses the Generic Cryptographic Authentication and Generic 
Meticulous Cryptographic Authentication sections to carry the 
authentication data. This updates, but does not supercede, the 
cryptographic authentication mechanism specified in RFC 5880.
