Overview

Package ifid contains the Go representation of an IFID keepalive packet.

IFID keepalive messages are sent from the beacon server on all links to the neighboring ASes using a one-hop path. The keepalive contains origin IFID which specifies the interface it was sent on. This allows beacon servers to discover the remote IFIDs of links, a crucial information for the beaconing process.
