[rbridge] Some comments on RBridge

[Eastlake III Donald-LDE008]

Yes, RBridge forwarding is completely different from MPLS forwarding.
But the argument has been that a lot of effort has been invested in
hardware to efficiently process the MPLS header at high speed.
Therefore, it will be helpful to more rapid deployment and the more
widespread attainment of the prospective advantages of TRILL to re-use
the MPLS header format.

Hello,
   RBridge tries to adopt MPLS header. Are there any benefit to do so?
IMO, the forwarding behavior of RBridge is totally different from MPLS.
It's not possible to use the same forwarding componments. 
 
   Best Regards!
