Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Transparent Interconnection of
Lots of Links (TRILL) are two emerging standards in the data center
environment. While these two protocols are seemingly unrelated, they
have a very similar behavior in the forwarding plane, as both perform
hop-by-hop forwarding over Ethernet, modifying the packet's Media
Access Control (MAC) addresses at each hop. This document describes
an architecture for the integrated deployment of these two protocols.
