The IESG has approved the following document: - 'Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) Single Area Border RBridge Nickname for Multilevel' (draft-ietf-trill-multilevel-single-nickname-17.txt) as Proposed Standard
This document has been reviewed in the IETF but is not the product of an IETF Working Group. The IESG contact person is Martin Vigoureux. A URL of this Internet Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-trill-multilevel-single-nickname/ Technical Summary This document specifies a protocol for multilevel TRILL using a form of aggregated nicknames where level 1 areas are identified by the set of border RBridges connecting them to level 2. Nicknames can be re-used in multiple level 1 areas of this type while nicknames used in level 2, including by boarder RBridges, must be unique across the TRILL campus. Working Group Summary This document was adopted by the TRILL Working Group but that working group was dissolved before the document was progressed. The WG designed two approaches (unique nickname and an aggregated nickname) and documented these in RFC8243. The aggregated approach has discussed these improvements, but implementation "proof of concepts" were considered useful prior to standardization. Document Quality This document is of good quality.
