Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Transparent Transport over MPLS
RFC 8385, “Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links Transparent Transport over MPLS”, is an Informational document published in June 2018 by M. Umair, S. Kingston Smiler, D. Eastlake 3rd, L. Yong. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.
Abstract
This document specifies methods to interconnect multiple TRILL (Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links) sites with an intervening MPLS network using existing TRILL and VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service) standards. This document addresses two problems: 1) providing connection between more than two TRILL sites that are separated by an MPLS provider network and 2) providing a single logical virtualized TRILL network for different tenants that are separated by an MPLS provider network.
What “Informational” means
Published for the general information of the community. It does not define an IETF standard and carries no standards-track status.
