Abstract: A system for checking references is disclosed that can be initiated by an individual for self-verification in anticipation of applying for a position, or a potential employer or user. The system may generate a survey that is distributed to references who can provide feedback based on the survey prompts. The survey may be drafted using parameters input by the individual, or the survey may be drafted using employment related information gathered from another source, for instance third-party website that collects employment data, such as O*NET. Based on received survey responses, a reference report is generated. The reference checking system also comprises an adverse action process and monitoring system that enables FCRA compliance in the event the reference report results in an adverse action. Also, the reference checking system provides a structured database for storing and retrieving reference reports designed to help reduce repeal requests for feedback from referee providers.

Abstract: A network device for performing bidirectional forwarding detection (BFD) includes a processor that receives packets from a peer; a session state machine that manages a session with the peer; a receive module that determines whether the packet indicates no change to the session; and a transmit module. The transmit module transmits BFD packets at an interval determined by the session state machine and transmits a session change packet in response to a configuration update by the session state machine.
