A new Request for Comments is now available in online RFC libraries. RFC 7781 Title: Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL): Pseudo-Nickname for Active-Active Access Author: H. Zhai, T. Senevirathne, R. Perlman, M. Zhang, Y. Li Status: Standards Track Stream: IETF Date: February 2016 Mailbox: honjun.zhai@tom.com, tsenevir@gmail.com, radia@alum.mit.edu, zhangmingui@huawei.com, liyizhou@huawei.com Pages: 35 Characters: 79489 Updates/Obsoletes/SeeAlso: None I-D Tag: draft-ietf-trill-pseudonode-nickname-07.txt URL: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc7781 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17487/RFC7781 The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) protocol provides support for flow-level multipathing for both unicast and multi-destination traffic in networks with arbitrary topology. Active-active access at the TRILL edge is the extension of these characteristics to end stations that are multiply connected to a TRILL campus as discussed in RFC 7379. In this document, the edge RBridge (Routing Bridge, or TRILL switch) group providing active-active access to such an end station is represented as a virtual RBridge. Based on the concept of the virtual RBridge, along with its pseudo-nickname, this document specifies a method for TRILL active-active access by such end stations. This document is a product of the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Working Group of the IETF. This is now a Proposed Standard. STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the Official Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. This announcement is sent to the IETF-Announce and rfc-dist lists.
