Abstract:
The IETF TRILL (TRansparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) protocol provides
optimal pair-wise data forwarding without configuration, safe forwarding even during periods of temporary loops,
and support for multipathing of both unicast and multicast traffic. TRILL accomplishes this by
using IS-IS (Intermediate System to Intermediate System) link state routing and by encapsulating traffic
using a header that includes a hop count. Devices that implement TRILL are called
Routing Bridges (RBridges).
