The IETF Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL)
protocol supports arbitrary link technologies between TRILL switches,
including point-to-point links and multi-access Local Area
Network (LAN) links that can have multiple TRILL switches and end stations
attached. TRILL uses Intermediate System to Intermediate
System (IS-IS) routing. This document specifies the establishment,
reporting, and termination of IS-IS adjacencies between TRILL
switches, also known as RBridges (Routing Bridges). It also concerns
four other link-local aspects of TRILL: Designated RBridge (DRB)
selection, MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) testing, pseudonode
creation, and BFD (Bidirectional Forwarding Detection) session
bootstrapping in connection with adjacency. State diagrams are
included where appropriate. This document obsoletes RFC 6327 and
updates RFC 6325.
This document is a product of the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Working Group of the IETF.
This is now a Proposed Standard.
