Does the M4300 series have a TRILL / FABRICPATH alternative that is not spanning tree?

Does the M4300 series have a TRILL / FABRICPATH alternative that is not spanning tree?

I'm looking to replace our spanning tree network with a protocol that supports multipathing.  True load balancing over multiple links. TRILL works great! But very limited in hardware. 

 

Spanning tree is too slow and far too many interoperability issues. We now have a mix of Extreme EAPS & Cisco REP but these are ring architecture, and don't load balance dual links like our TRILL HP switches.

 

Does Netgear have anything similar?

Hi @ryny24 

 

Welcome to Community!

 

Currently, Netgear Managed Switch support spanning tree protocal(STP/RSTP/MSTP) and PVSTP/PVRSTP. Not support TRILL.

 

Hope it helps!
