TRILL configuration example

Network requirements

As shown in

Figure 7

, configure TRILL in the Layer 2 data center network as follows:

Enable TRILL on the downlink ports of access layer devices to connect terminal devices to the TRILL
network.

Enable TRILL on the uplink ports of access layer devices, and configure these uplink ports as trunk
ports to pass TRILL frames to the TRILL network.

Enable TRILL on the downlink ports of distribution layer devices, and configure these downlink ports
as trunk ports to forward TRILL data frames.

Enable TRILL on the uplink ports of the distribution layer devices. These ports send the
de-encapsulated TRILL data frames to the core layer.

In the TRILL network, configure four TRILL distribution trees with RB 6 through RB 9 as the root bridges.
RB 6 through RB 9 are in descending priority order.

A hierarchical network has three layers (from up to down): the core layer, distribution layer, and access
layer. Usually, a port connecting to a higher layer device is called an uplink port, and a port connecting

to a lower layer device is called a downlink port.
