Status of approval:
|
|
|
In force

|
Justification for the specific reference:
|
|
|
Y.1731 defines OAM for Ethernet networks. IEEE 802.1D specifies the bridging aspects for Ethernet networks. Y.1731 makes therefore a generic reference to it.

IEEE 802 Local Area Networks (or LANs; see 3.4) of all types can be connected together using MAC Bridges. The Bridged Local Area Network created allows the interconnection of stations as if they were attached to a single LAN, even if they are attached to separate LANs each with its own independent MAC. A MAC Bridge operates below the MAC Service Boundary, and is transparent to protocols operating above this boundary, in the Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayer or Network Layer (ISO/IEC 7498-1: 19941). The presence of one or more MAC Bridges can lead to differences in the Quality of Service (QoS) provided by the MAC sublayer; it is only because of such differences that MAC Bridge operation is not fully transparent.
