Basic Rbridge idea
Link state protocol among Rbridges (so know how to route to other Rbridges)
“Somehow” learn location of endnodes (e.g., from data traffic, or ARP replies)
Report attached endnodes in link state info
Need to encapsulate pkts
To distinguish originating traffic from transit
To specify next recipient
To include a hop count
