Under certain circumstances, it is possible to encode TRILL
(TRansparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) Data frames so as to
make more efficient use of communications links. TRILL is implemented
by devices called RBridges (Routing Bridges) that implement the IETF
TRILL standard.
This document specifies two such optional optimizations. One, called
Compact Format, improves the compactness of encoding in the case
where the link between two RBridges is a point-to-point Ethernet
link. The other, called Specific Addressing, optionally decreases
the burden on multi-access links between RBridges, such as links
consisting of a complex bridged LAN, when forwarding multi-
destination TRILL Data frames and there is only one or a few next hop
RBridges of interest.
