This document describes mechanisms for providing directory service to
TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) edge switches.
The directory information provided can be used in reducing
multi-destination traffic, particularly ARP / Neighbor Discovery (ND)
and unknown unicast flooding. It can also be used to detect traffic
with forged source addresses.
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.
