• When you set up a TRILL network, avoid the case that multiple TRILL neighbors are established for
one RB port. When you plan a network, avoid the networks shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6.
{ Figure 5 shows a typical network where two TRILL neighbors are established for the same port
of an RB.
{ In Figure 6, because TRILL is not enabled on the port connecting RB 2 to RB 3, the port will
transparently transmit the TRILL Hello frames from RB 3. As a result, two TRILL neighbors are
established for the port connecting RB 1 to RB 2.
