BCN
A relatively new technology and proposed requirement.
Only works in “compatible cloud” scenario
Has inconsistent potential impacts on the RBridge solution
It’s unreasonable to require BCN capable RBridges to keep MAC reachability information because of the potential scaling issues involved.
Yet BCN only works in small domains where the total control-plane propagation delay is less than a milisecond.
Can we have “scaling issues” in small networks?
