When ingress RBridge receives a data frame with its destination address (MAC\&VLAN) unknown, the data frame is flooded across the TRILL campus. When there are more than one RBridge ports connected to one bridged LAN, only one of them can be designated as AF port for forwarding/receiving traffic for each LAN, the rest have to be blocked for that LAN. This draft describes the framework for using directory service to assist edge RBridges to improve TRILL network scalability in data center environment.}, }
