EFFICIENT TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT FOR BRIDGED RESILIENT PACKETRINGS USING TOPOLOGY DISCOVERY AND SPANNING TREEALGORITHM

摘要

When bridging Resilient Packet Rings, available bandwidthdrops dramatically because traffic between ringsmust be flooded on all the rings. This paper proposes enhancementsto topology discovery and spanning tree algorithmthat will manage traffic between rings more effi-ciently and remove the need for flooding.
