Requested revision
| Standard: | IEEE 802.1AR-2018 | Clause: | A.5 and A.6 |
| Clause title: | "A.5 Major capabilities and options" and "A.6 DevID | ||
Rationale for revision
The "Status" column of the PICS tables in A.5 and A.6 contain references to the PICS items "SI-9" and "SI-10". However, no such PICS items exist in table A.6, that contains the items labeled "SI-". The labels seem to be a leftover from IEEE Std 802.1AR-2009 where the items in table A.6 used labels of the form "SI-[number]". As the items "SI-9" and "SI-10" no longer exist in A.6 in IEEE Std 802.1AR-2018, they need to be updated to point to the correct entries. "SI-9" should be "SI-KG" and "SI-10" should be "SI-KI".
Proposed text
In table A.6, change the entry in the "Status" column of item "SI-KD" to read: "SI-KG:M SI-KI:M" In table A.5, change the entry in the "Status" column of item "RNG" to read: "SI-KG:M O"
Impact on existing networks
to help implementers of the standard to correctly fulfill the requirements
