Abstract:
The TRILL protocol supports arbitrary link technologies between TRILL
switches, both point-to-point and broadcast links, and supports
Ethernet links between edge TRILL switches and end stations.
Communications links are constantly under attack by criminals and
national intelligence agencies as discussed in RFC 7258. Link
security is an important element of security in depth, particularly
for links that are not entirely under the physical control of the
TRILL network operator or that include device which may have been
compromised. This document specifies link security recommendations
for TRILL over Ethernet, PPP, and pseudowire links taking into
account performance considerations. It updates RFC 6325, 6361, and
7173. It requires that all TRILL packets between links ports capable
of encryption at line speed MUST default to being encrypted. [This is
an early partial draft.]
