The IESG has approved the following document: - 'TRILL: Edge Directory Assist Mechanisms' (draft-ietf-trill-directory-assist-mechanisms-12.txt) as Proposed Standard This document is the product of the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Working Group. The IESG contact persons are Alvaro Retana, Alia Atlas and Deborah Brungard. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-directory-assist-mechanisms/ Technical Summary 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. Directory Service can utilize either a push or a pull mechanism. Working Group Summary This document is the result of 3 years of intensive discussion. The WG consensus was complete even if the WG discussion at the end of the three years was "Time to send this to IESG".
