The IESG has received a request from the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links WG (trill) to consider the following document: - 'TRILL: Pseudo-Nickname for Active-Active Access' <draft-ietf-trill-pseudonode-nickname-05.txt> as Proposed Standard 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 2015-09-01. 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 for both unicast and multi-destination traffic in networks with arbitrary topology. Active-active access at the TRILL edge is the extension of these characteristics to end stations that are multiply connected to a TRILL campus as discussed in RFC 7379. In this document, the edge RBridge (TRILL switch) group providing active-active access to such an end station are represented as a Virtual RBridge. Based on the concept of Virtual RBridge along with its pseudo-nickname, this document specifies a method for TRILL active-active access by such end stations. The file can be obtained via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-pseudonode-nickname/ IESG discussion can be tracked via https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-pseudonode-nickname/ballot/ The following IPR Declarations may be related to this I-D: https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2083/ https://datatracker.ietf.org/ipr/2444/
