Standard:802.1Q-2012, 802.1D-2004Clause:17.7.6, 13.25 (802.1Q-2012) and 17.14 (802.1D-2004)
Clause title:Definitions for the IEEE8021-MSTP MIB module, State
Rationale for revision
The default TX hold count parameter should be 6 according to 802.1D-2004 (table 17-1) and 802.1Q-2012-Ed (table 13-5), but 3 according to the DEFVAL clause of ieee8021SpanningTreeRstpTxHoldCount (page 652 in 802.1Q-2012-Ed).
Proposed text
Either change the default of Transmit Hold Count to 3 in 802.1D-2004 (table 17-1) and 802.1Q-2012-Ed (table 13-5), or change the DEFVLAL clause of ieee8021SpanningTreeRstpTxHoldCount to 6.
