Requested revision
Standard:802.1Q-2011Clause:D
Clause title:IEEE 802.1 organizationally specific TLVs
Rationale for revision
Submitted on behalf of David Law: I have a question in relation to the MIB entries that seem to defined with wrong indexes in IEEE Std 802.1AB-2009. I understand the same errors exist in the LLDP-EXT-DOT1-V2-MIB-201103230000Z.txt MIB but the following are excerpts from IEEE Std 802.1AB-2009. For example, lldpV2Xdot1RemManVidEntry describes the management VLAN ID of a specified neighbour. However, lldpV2RemIndex is not included by the indexes. The same bug exists on the lldpV2Xdot1RemVidUsageDigestEntry. ----- Name: lldpV2Xdot1RemManVidEntry Type: OBJECT-TYPE OID: 1.3.111.2.802.1.1.13.1.5.32962.1.3.6.1 Full path: iso(1).org(3).ieee(111).standards-association-numbers-series-standards(2).lan-man-stds(802).ieee802dot1(1).ieee802dot1mibs(1).lldpV2MIB(13).lldpV2Objects(1).lldpV2Extensions(5).lldpV2Xdot1MIB(32962).lldpV2Xdot1Objects(1).lldpV2Xdot1RemoteData(3).lldpV2Xdot1RemManVidTable(6).lldpV2Xdot1RemManVidEntry(1) Module: LLDP-EXT-DOT1-V2-MIB Parent: lldpV2Xdot1RemManVidTable First child: lldpV2Xdot1RemManVid Numerical syntax: Null Base syntax: LldpV2Xdot1RemManVidEntry Composed syntax: LldpV2Xdot1RemManVidEntry Status: current Max access: not-accessible Sequences: 1: lldpV2Xdot1RemManVid - Unsigned32(66 - gauge32) Indexes: 1: lldpV2RemTimeMark 2: lldpV2RemLocalIfIndex 3: lldpV2RemLocalDestMACAddress Reference: D.2.6 Description: Management VID information received through the given port/destination address pair.

Proposed text
Include lldpV2RemIndex in the indexes for these two objects.
Impact on existing networks
Minimal. These are optional objects; the only impact would be seen in networks where the corresponding TLVs are received from more than one remote system on a given destination address.
