The IESG has received a request from the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links WG (trill) to consider the following document: - 'TRILL: Edge Directory Assist Mechanisms' <draft-ietf-trill-directory-assist-mechanisms-10.txt> as Proposed Standard The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2017-01-02. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract 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/ND and unknown unicast flooding. It can also be used to detect traffic with forged source addresses. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-directory-assist-mechanisms/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-directory-assist-mechanisms/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2524/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2372/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2039/
