802.1aq Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) is being standardized by the
IEEE as the next step in the evolution of the various spanning tree
and registration protocols. 802.1aq allows for true shortest path
forwarding in a mesh Ethernet network context utilizing multiple
equal cost paths. This permits it to support much larger layer 2
topologies, with faster convergence, and vastly improved use of the
mesh topology. Combined with this is single point provisioning for
logical connectivity membership, which includes point-to-point,
point-to-multi-point and multi-point-to-multipoint variations. This
memo documents the IS-IS changes required to support this IEEE
protocol and provides some context and examples.
