Requested revision
Standard:IEEE Std 802.1Q-2018Clause:5.4.1
Clause title:VLAN Bridge component options
Rationale for revision
In writing P802.1DC D1.0, the following problem was detected. This issue was confirmed as being apparently an omission during the comment resolution process on P802.1DC D1.0: IEEE 802.1Q-2018 5.4.1 bullet ab) specifies only the option to conform to 8.6.8.4 for a VLAN Bridge component to implement enhancements for scheduled traffic. However, every other reference to the scheduled traffic capability in Clause 5, including 5.4.1.9:a, 5.13.1:l, 5.13.1.2:a, 5.25:a, and 5.28:a, is also accompanied by a reference to 8.6.9 (in 5.4.1.9:b, 5.13.1:m, 5.13.1.2:b, 5.25:b, and 5.28:b). It would appear that there should be a bullet referencing 8.6.9 in 5.4.1 right after bullet ab.
Proposed text
Add the following bullet to 5.4.1 immediately after bullet ab), renumbering all subsequent bullets: ac) Support the state machines for scheduled traffic as specified in 8.6.9.
Impact on existing networks
None known.
