Abstract:
The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links)
protocol provides least cost pair-wise data forwarding without
configuration in multi-hop networks with arbitrary topologies and
link technologies. TRILL supports for multi-pathing of both unicast
and multicast traffic. Devices that implement the TRILL protocol are
called RBridges (Routing Bridges) or TRILL Switches.
The ESADI (End Station Address Distribution Information) protocol is
a VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) scoped way that TRILL switches
can communicate end station addresses to each other. An RBridge
announcing VLAN-x connectivity (normally a VLAN-x appointed
forwarder) and running the TRILL ESADI protocol can receive remote
address information and/or transmit local address information for
VLAN-x to other such RBridges. This document updates RFC 6325,
specifically the documentation of the ESADI protocol.
