The IESG has received a request from the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links WG (trill) to consider the following document: - 'Problem Statement and Goals for Active-Active TRILL Edge' <draft-ietf-trill-active-active-connection-prob-05.txt> as Informational RFC The IESG plans to make a decision in the next few weeks, and solicits final comments on this action. Please send substantive comments to the ietf@ietf.org mailing lists by 2014-07-14. Exceptionally, comments may be sent to iesg@ietf.org instead. In either case, please retain the beginning of the Subject line to allow automated sorting. Abstract The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) protocol provides support for flow level multi-pathing with rapid failover for both unicast and multi-destination traffic in networks with arbitrary topology. Active-active at the TRILL edge is the extension of these characteristics to end stations that are multiply connected to a TRILL campus. This informational document discusses the high level problems and goals when providing active-active connection at the TRILL edge. The file can be obtained via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-active-active-connection-prob/ IESG discussion can be tracked via http://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-active-active-connection-prob/ballot/ No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
