[rbridge] Rbridge Management

Judging from the experience of previous documents in the IESG, I believe
it would be wise for the base protocol document to say something about
management.

So I think that something like the following should be added, perhaps as
a paragraph just before the 2.1 Section heading.

"Rbridges can be managed with SNMP [RFC3410]. The Rbridge MIB will be
specified in a separate document. SNMP can be transported directly by
Layer 2 (see [RFC4789]) so its use within the bounds of an Rbridge
campus does not require that Rbridges be configured with Layer 3
addresses such as IP addresses."

Any comments?
