TOTAL TRILL TRAINING COURSE DESCRIPTION
A comprehensive look at Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL).
This TRILL course starts with the problems in traditional switched networks then
moves onto to how TRILL solves these problems. As IS -IS is key to loop free
topologies in TRILL networks, this protocol is also studied.
