IEEE P1910.1

This standard specifies a meshed tree bridging protocol for the purpose of forwarding unicast, multicast and broadcast frames in a loop free forwarding topology with zero convergence time on detection of link or switch failure. The meshed tree scheme imposes low operational and control overhead by operating through local information dissemination without flooding or forwarding link details to all switches in the topology. Advanced features are incorporated from the ground-up by defining two additional mutually non-exclusive modes; secure and static topology construction.
