Title: BFD Extensions for PW Exchange of Fault Notifications

BFD mechanism [BFD] was original designed to detect failures in
communication with a forwarding plane next hop. BFD operates on top of any
data protocol being forwarded between two systems. This document describes
how to use the BFD mechanism for exchanging OAM Notifications (e.g. AC and
PWs Notifications) between OAM domains, for P2P PWs (Single Hop PW, or
Multiple Hop PW). This proposal is presented as an alternative to the LDP
Status Mechanism described in [PW-CNTL].
