Document Summary • Defines a UDP/IP encapsulation for TRILL • Used to connect two remote TRILL sites into a single TRILL campus over any IP network • Two Scenarios • Remote Office Scenario • IP Backbone Scenario
Document Status • -04 version published in January • Added details of UDP header • Added congestion considerations section • Updated references • Minor editorial changes • Adopted as a WG draft in February • Next version will be draft-ietf-trill-over-ip-00.txt

Open Issue: Encapsulation • Some discussion of whether a UDP/IP encapsulation is desired or whether TRILL should be encapsulated “directly” in IP • “Direct” encapsulation might require TRILL-specific header for entropy • Is a checksum of the TRILL packet needed or desirable?
Other Open Issues • Need to complete section on “Handling Multicast” • Need to complete “Middlebox Considerations” section
