Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links : Clarifications, Corrections, and Updates
RFC 7780, “Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links : Clarifications, Corrections, and Updates”, is a Proposed Standard document published in February 2016 by D. Eastlake 3rd, M. Zhang, R. Perlman, A. Banerjee, A. Ghanwani, S. Gupta. It updates RFC 6325, RFC 7177, RFC 7179. It obsoletes RFC 7180. It has since been updated by RFC 8249. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
Since the publication of the TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) base protocol in 2011, active development and deployment of TRILL have revealed errata in RFC 6325 and areas that could use clarifications or updates. RFC 7177, RFC 7357, and an intended replacement of RFC 6439 provide clarifications and updates with respect to adjacency, the TRILL ESADI (End Station Address Distribution Information) protocol, and Appointed Forwarders, respectively. This document provides other known clarifications, corrections, and updates. It obsoletes RFC 7180 (the previous "TRILL clarifications, corrections, and updates" RFC), and it updates RFCs 6325, 7177, and 7179.
What “Proposed Standard” means
An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
