Requested revision
Standard: | IEEE Std 802.1Q-2022 | Clause: | 8.8.3 |
Clause title: | Dynamic Filtering Entries |
Rationale for revision
Item b) states "The FID, an identifier assigned by the MAC Bridge (8.8.8) to identify a set of VIDs ...". In contrast, the sentence following the lettered list ["Item b), and any reference to FIDs and VIDs in the list above, are not applicable to MAC Bridge components."], clause 8.2 and other locations in that standard indicate that MAC Bridges are unable to identify and handle VIDs at all.
Proposed text
Change "The FID, an identifier assigned by the MAC Bridge (8.8.8) to identify a set of VIDs ..." to "The FID, an identifier assigned by the VLAN Bridge (8.8.8) to identify a set of VIDs ..."
Impact on existing networks
To be determined by IEEE 802.1/Maintenance TG.
