Requested revision
Standard: | IEEE Std 802.1Q-2022 | Clause: | 46.2.2 |
Clause title: | Protocol integration |
Rationale for revision
Triggered by Comment #3 on P802.1Qdj D1.0
IEEE Std 802.1Q-2022 states on page 1672:
"The StreamID of each group correlates each request to its corresponding response"
This is not sufficient assuming a chain of multiple Req/Resp exchanges and potential loss of messages.
Proposed text
Change above section to read:
"The StreamID of each group binds request and response for a stream, an additional sequence counter per StreamID of each group correlates each request to its corresponding response"
Impact on existing networks
Prevent protocol implementations which will not be able to handle a sequence of request/responses.
