Requested revision
Standard:802.1Q/D1.5Clause:10.6
Clause title:Protocol Operation
Rationale for revision
operPointToPointMAC (defined in clause 6.6.3) is referenced several
times in 802.1Q/D1.5.  Most of those references correctly point to
clause 6.6.3.  When 802.1ak was rolled into 802.1Q it contained
references to clause 6.4.3 (clause 10.6, pg 164, line 21) which were
not updated to 6.6.3.

The MIB variable ieee8021BridgeBasePortAdminPointToPoint (clause 17.7.2,
page 513, line 5) also has the old reference to 6.4.3.
Proposed text
Replace references to 6.4.3 with 6.6.3.
Impact on existing networks
This should have no impact on existing networks. It is simply a correction for an invalid reference.
