Requested revision
| Standard: | 802.1Q-2018 | Clause: | 8.6.5 |
| Clause title: | Flow classification and metering | ||
Rationale for revision
NOTE 3 starts with this text "Although flow metering is applied after egress (Figure 8-12), ...". Figure 8-11 of Q-2014 labeled the box in question as "Egress (8.6.4)". Figure 8-12 of Q-2018 (a.k.a. Figure 8-11 from Q-2014) labels the box "Egress filtering (8.6.4)". 802.1Qci-2017 introduced this change (see editing instructions on page 17). Unfortunately NOTE 3 was not similarly updated.
Proposed text
Change "egress" to "egress filtering" in NOTE 3 as follows: "NOTE 3 Although flow metering is applied after egress filtering (Figure 8-12), ...".
Impact on existing networks
None, this is only a clarification so that readers understand that NOTE 3 is referring
to a specific box in the figure, not a generic concept of egress.
