Abstract:
TRILL facilitates loop free connectivity to non-TRILL legacy
networks via choice of an Appointed Forwarder for a set of VLANs.
Appointed Forwarders provide load sharing based on VLAN with an
active-standby model. Mission critical operations such as High
Performance Data Centers require an active-active load sharing
model. The Active-Active load-sharing model can be accomplished by
representing any given non-TRILL legacy network with a single
virtual RBridge. Virtual representation of the non-TRILL legacy
network with a single RBridge poses serious challenges in multi-
destination RPF (Reverse Path Forwarding) check calculations. This
document specifies required enhancements to build Coordinated
Multicast Trees (CMT) within the TRILL campus to solve related RPF
issues. CMT provides flexibility to RBridges in selecting desired
path of association to a given TRILL multi-destination distribution
tree. This document updates RFC 6325.
