  1. TRILL RBridge Architecture The RBridge Approach to Solving the TRILL Problem

  2. Goals in this Iteration • Nail down terms and definitions, • Eliminate complex interactions with other protocols and technologies and make a few choices, • Step forward in defining what must be specified in solution documents (Fill-in Architectural detail), • Seek input/guidance for future changes and • Accept as a working group document

  3. Terms & Definitions • Broken into 2 sections, the first provides specific definitions of existing terminology as they apply to RBridges • 802, Ethernet and LAN terminology • Basic Link-State Routing terminology • The second section defines RBridge specific terminology – especially those that have seemed controversial in dicussion on the list • Relating to RBridge forwarding • Ingress RBridge Tree – replaces the often confusing references to RBridge spanning trees • Forwarding Tunnels • “Campus” related terminology including various logical tables • RBridge roles – Edge (Ingress, Egress), DR, Cooperation

  4. Complicated Interactions • Reduce the amount of specification required for inter-working with other technologies by defining an abstract “co-located functionality” model • Co-located Bridge (potential STP/RSTP BPDU interactions) – allows us to use “block STP” mode only for an abstract RBridge (see section 4.8). • Define as optional/allowed functionality, those capabilities relating to optimization • IRT (Ingress RBridge Tree) Pruning • VLAN Pruning • Multicast Pruning • Flooding Optimization • ARP/ND Optimization

  5. Architectural Detail • Logical Tables • Details on logical content for unicast (CFT) and flooding/multicast/broadcast (CFT-IRT) logical tables for various RBridge roles • Details on: • topology discovery, • progression toward operating status – • Auto-configuration, peer & topology discovery, SPF and IRT computation, learning and forwarding • Forwarding • Population of the CFT and CTT • Uses of the CFT and CFT-IRT • Added content to “Conclusions” section.

  6. Future Changes? • Input on specific sections? • Further abstraction • Co-located VLAN (bridging and routing) • Add More details on VLAN interactions with CFT-IRT (section 4.6.2). • Add More details on Optimizations? • Complete section 5 (How this architecture addresses the problem statement. • Standard or Informational?

  7. Finally • Accept as a working group document?
