Amendment 15: Multiple I-SID Registration Protocol


Approved 16 June 2011

Abstract: This amendment to IEEE Std 802.1Q-2011 specifies protocols, procedures, and managed objects to support topology change signaling to alter the binding (held in an I-Component) of Customer addresses to Backbone addresses on a per-I-SID basis. This is accomplished by
extending the use of the Multiple Registration Protocol (MRP).
