Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8302, changed title to 'Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL): ARP and Neighbor Discovery (ND) Optimization', changed abstract to 'This document describes mechanisms to optimize the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) and Neighbor Discovery (ND) traffic in a Transparent Interconnection of Lots of Links (TRILL) campus.  TRILL switches maintain a cache of IP / Media Access Control (MAC) address / Data Label bindings that are learned from ARP/ND requests and responses that pass through them.  In many cases, this cache allows an edge Routing Bridge (RBridge) to avoid flooding an ARP/ND request by either responding to it directly or encapsulating it and unicasting it.  Such optimization reduces packet flooding over a TRILL campus.', changed pages to 18, changed standardization level to Proposed Standard, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2018-01-05, changed IESG state to RFC Published)
