Requested revision
Standard: | 802.1Q-2011 | Clause: | 17.7.14 |
Clause title: | Definitions of the IEEE8021-SRP MIB module |
Rationale for revision
Referring to page 841 of the 802.1Q-2011 PDF, the definition of the
object ieee8021SrpReservationStreamAge is not proper. Specifically, the
text after the first sentence is improper. The first sentence is
sufficient to allow for Endstations (Talkers or Listeners) or Bridges to
set the value however the implementation determines endstation stream
age, and via 35.2.1.4c for Bridges.

Proposed text
Change the definition of the object ieee8021SrpReservationStreamAge to:

DESCRIPTION
"The number of seconds since the reservation was established
on this port."
REFERENCE "35.2.1.4c"

Impact on existing networks
