Problem Statement and Goals for Active-Active Connection at the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Edge
RFC 7379, “Problem Statement and Goals for Active-Active Connection at the Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Edge”, is an Informational document published in October 2014 by Y. Li, W. Hao, R. Perlman, J. Hudson, H. Zhai. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
The IETF TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) protocol provides support for flow-level multipathing with rapid failover for both unicast and multi-destination traffic in networks with arbitrary topology. Active-active connection at the TRILL edge is the extension of these characteristics to end stations that are multiply connected to a TRILL campus. This informational document discusses the high-level problems and goals when providing active-active connection at the TRILL edge.
