2013-03-19 Mar 2013 Plenary There is a mismatch between clause 8, clause 12 (has more than 8) and clause 17 (differ from 12) We need to at least add a VID-to-FID table to MIB, and deprecate the constraints. But alignment is needed. Panos Saltsidis will provide detailed text changes... Target for 802.1Qrev Complete then Ballot

2013-07-15 Jul 2013 Plenary Panos Saltsidis has completed the following technical review: During the SPB project discussions it has been decided to drop the dynamic aspects of VID to FID allocations as expressed though the VLAN Learning Constraints (and leave only dynamic allocations associated with the operation of SPBV (the SPVID allocation)). As a result clause 8.8.8 has been modified by IEEE Std 802.1aq-2012 to reflect these changes but unfortunately these changes are not reflected in Clause 12 or in Clause 17 which still discuss dynamic VID to FID allocations through the use of the VLAN Learning Constraints. Here is the list of changes that are required for Clause 12 (Clause 17 should reflect those changes but my MIB expertise is limited and somebody else needs to go through those changes) The current title of 12.10.3 The VLAN Learning Constraints managed object needs to be changed to “12.10.3 The VID to FID allocation managed object” The text in 12.10.3 needs to be replacing the current text with the following: “The VID to FID allocations managed object models operations that modify, or inquire about VID to FID allocations (8.8.8) that apply to the operation of the Learning Process and the Filtering Database. The object is modeled as a fixed-length tables, as follows: a) A VID to FID allocation table (8.8.8) with an entry per VID supported by the implementation. Each table entry indicates, for that VID, that there is currently 1) No allocation defined; or 2) A fixed allocation to FID X; or 3) A dynamic allocation to FID X. NOTE- Item 3) is only applicable only for SPT Bridges and VIDs that have been reserved for use as SPVIDs. The management operations that can be performed on the FID to VID allocations managed object are b) Read VID to FID allocations (12.10.3.1); c) Read FID allocation for VID (12.10.3.2); d) Read VIDs allocated to FID (12.10.3.3); e) Set VID to FID allocation (12.10.3.4); f) Delete VID to FID allocation (12.10.3.5).” Delete current clauses 12.10.3.1, 12.10.3.2, 12.10.3.3 and 12.10.3.4. Renumber the following clauses starting from 12.10.3.1 in increasing order. In 12.10.3.5.3, 12.10.3.6.3, and 12.10.3.7.3 (now renumbered to 12.10.3.1.3, 12.10.3.2.3, and 12.10.3.3.3) Include a NOTE “NOTE- The indication of dynamic is only applicable only for SPT Bridges and VIDs that have been reserved for use as SPVIDs” In 12.10.3.8.3 Outputs (now renumbered to 12.10.3.4.3 Outputs) delete item a1) and renumber subsequent sub items. Make a global search for “VLAN Learning Constraints” and delete the associated references. Editor is requested to include in draft for 802.1Q-REV Ready for Ballot
