Abstract:
Two alternate methods of encoding Multi Topology Identifier within the TRILL data frames are presented. Methods proposed herein do not require overloading TRILL RBridge nickname to encode Multi Topology Identifier. A method that expands TRILL nickname space from 16bits to 24 bits is also presented in this draft.
