Can you use BFD on pure Layer 2 links?

We've been running LACP for years and had no (major) 
problems. Chances are that if your CPU is thrashing enough 
to affect LACP, you're going to be having other problems 
anyway.

While on the subject, I think LAG's on the EX3200/4200 is 
moot. The ASIC's don't load share :-(.
