The IESG has approved the following document: - 'VPLS Interoperability with CE Bridges' (draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-bridge-interop-06.txt) as an Informational RFC This document is the product of the Layer 2 Virtual Private Networks Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Stewart Bryant and Adrian Farrel. A URL of this Internet Draft is: http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-l2vpn-vpls-bridge-interop/ Technical Summary When CE devices are IEEE bridges, then there are certain issues and challenges that need to be accounted for in a VPLS network. The majority of these issues have currently been addressed in the IEEE 802.1ad standard for provider bridges and they need to be addressed for VPLS networks as well. This draft discusses these issues and wherever possible, the recommended solutions to these issues. Working Group Summary This document has been reviewed by carriers and experts in the L2VPN WG and there are no outstanding issues. Document Quality This document was reviewed by the L2VPN chairs and Mark Townsley. Personnel Who is the Document Shepherd for this document?
