Abstract
Techniques for dynamically establishing and configuring a liveliness detection session for a local repair connection of a connection. In one set of embodiments, a signaling message is received at a node configured to maintain a local repair connection for a connection. A configuration parameter is identified in the signaling message, where the configuration parameter pertains to a liveliness detection mechanism or protocol. A liveliness detection session is then established for the local repair connection based on the configuration parameter.
