Hello there,

I've been studying routing protocol during my studies, like OSPF, BGP, 
EGP, IGP, RIP, OLSR...... All those protocols are based on the routing 
table concept and each of them has its own way to compute routing table 
which is then used by the Linux kernel. But this is for IPv4 (or IPv6), 
ie layer 3.

I'm new at layer2 and I've read 802.1D-2004, learning STP and RSTP. I'd 
like to know if there are some other protocols (be it standard or 
proprietary) that achieve this goal of connecting layer2 cloud. Is there 
a concept of routing table at layer2?

Regards,
Benoit
