Configuring the link type of a TRILL port
The following link types are available for a TRILL port:
Access
—Access ports include the following types:
{
Access port without the alone attribute
—Processes only local data frames and Hello frames.
{
Access port with the alone attribute
—Does not send or receive Hello frames and does not
participate in the DRB election or AVF negotiation.
Hybrid
—A hybrid port combines the attributes of an access port and a trunk port, and can process
local data frames and passing data frames.
Trunk
—A trunk port can process passing data frames and some of Layer 2 protocol frames (for
example, LLDP frames), but it cannot process local data frames.

Configuring the DRB priority of a TRILL port
On a broadcast network, TRILL must elect a DRB. An RB with a higher DRB priority is preferred. When two
RBs have the same DRB priority, the RB with a higher MAC address takes precedence.

Configuring the announcing VLANs
Announcing VLANs forward Hello frames between RBs.
The DRB uses the VLANs in the following set for sending Hello frames: enabled VLANs
(announcing
