Challenges and Drivers
Reduce Cost & Improve Time-to-Service
Making IT more efficient
Effectively supporting business initiatives
Application team & network team coordination
Allow IT the ability to simply say “yes”
Future-proof infrastructure
Eliminating network re-designs
IT as the enabler and not the inhibitor
Consolidation & explosion of content brings heightened visibility & risk
Bigger Data Centers demand improved operational efficiency
More application and added complexity drives cost up
There is an obvious need to simplify without compromising

The Current State of Affairs with STP
A

In distributed
manner, decide
X who is root and
what shortest
path to root is.
X
X
D
The STP protocol distributes bridge PDUs (BPDUs) to compute
a single spanning tree. Ports not on the tree are blocked and not used
for multicast traffic. Unknown destinations are broadcast, and
reverse learning used to build forwarding tables.
© 2010 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
Results in Inefficient forwarding
•Traffic often not on shortest path (its on tree).
Eg (A=>D) traffic.
A
root
A->
A->
X
X
A
<-A
X
D
•Many links go unused or underutilized
•Result is that physical networks tend to resemble trees
© 2010 Avaya Inc. All rights reserved.
SPB’s approach (As a replacement to STP)
Use shortest path first tree rooted at each node as its own private
multicast tree.
A
B
R
G
D
•For example. R,G,B now have individual trees.
•Interior nodes now must know who originated packet to know what tree
it should be placed
•Interior nodes therefore see one tree per bridge in network.

The Basics of How SPBm Works
1. Discover network topology
•
•
IS-IS natural L2 routing protocol
Hierarchy built in for scaling
2. IS-IS nodes automatically build
trees from themselves to all nodes:
Important properties:
•
Shortest path tree based on link metrics
•
No blocked links
•
RPFC to eliminate loops
•
Symmetric datapath between any two
nodes provides closed OAM system
•
unicast path now exists from every
node to every other node
3. Use IS-IS to advertise new services
communities of interest
•
Floods topology, MAC and ISID
information to network
