Technical Summary
This document specifies methods to interconnect multiple Transparent
Interconnection of Lots of links (TRILL) sites with an intervening
MPLS network using existing TRILL and VPLS standards. This draft
addresses two problems as follows:
1) Providing connection between more than two TRILL sites that are
separated by an MPLS provider network.
2) Providing a single logical virtualized TRILL network for different
tenants that are separated by an MPLS provider network.
Working Group Summary
Vendors in the WG (Huawei, IP Infusion, and others) wanted to have
this informational draft in order to provide wisdom for customers.
This draft provides a clear explanation for these customers on how
to link two campuses via an MPLS provider network.
TRILL deployments in Europe and Asia (Japan and India)
originally asked for this type of insight.
Document Quality
Excellent reviews from Loa and Andy, from the MPLS perspective, that were resolved.
