Abstract:
An auto fabric configuration (AFC) mode is provided to enable network elements, when added to a data communication network, to discover each other, using TLVs added to standard protocols. The AFC mode further allows for automatic configuration of the network fabric. For example, core features, such as link aggregation, Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) and Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) adjacencies, can be automatically configured.
