[rbridge] Shared VLAN learning: What is it and why should we care?

[Eric Gray (LO/EUS)]

Russ,

	I'm with you on that, but I doubt that a single diagram
would suffice to describe the many different things that people
are talking about.  Trying to come up with a single diagram to 
include all of the issues would result in a diagram too complex
to be useful in most cases.

	You may have seen the simplistic one I provided to show 
the potential problems that might arise from using inter-VLAN
Proxy ARP with RBridges - if one does not take into account a
real-world possibility that this may be done already using the
techniques that are deployed today.  But does that one serve
to illustrate the other problems discussed in this thread?  I
think not...
