Requested revision
Standard: | IEEE Std 802.1Q-2018 | Clause: | 43.3.3.4 |
Clause title: | Subtype |
Rationale for revision
P802.1CS Link-local Registration Protocol (LRP) needs a code point for LRP over ECP. The number shown below (3) is not the only choice, of course.
I recommend that we 1) note in this maintenance item record what number will be assigned; 2) Include that number in P802.1CS when it goes to sponsor ballot; and only then, 3) approve this maintenance item for inclusion into 802.1Q. We can consider later whether it is better, after all this, to remove the number from 802.1CS, or leave it in both places.
Proposed text
Add the following line to Table 43-1 "ECP subtype":
Link-local Registration Protocol (LRP) | IEEE Std 802.1CS | 0x0003
Impact on existing networks
None
