Abstract:
   RFC4762 describes a mechanism to remove or unlearn MAC addresses that
   have been dynamically learned in a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS)
   Instance for faster convergence on topology change.  The procedure
   also removes MAC addresses in the VPLS that do not require relearning
   due to such topology change.  This document defines an enhancement to
   the MAC Address Withdrawal procedure with empty MAC List from
   RFC4762, which enables a Provider Edge(PE) device to remove only the
   MAC addresses that need to be relearned.  Additional extensions to
   RFC4762 MAC Withdrawal procedures are specified to provide optimized
   MAC flushing for the Provider Backbone Bridging (PBB)VPLS specified
   in RFC7041.
