802.11 Review of March 2013 Proposed Pars Authors: • Date:2013-03-18 Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
Abstract • Review of 802 WG PARS submitted for review during the July 2013 Session. Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
PARs under consideration • July 1x-1x, 2013, Geneva, Switzerland • 802.1Qcc - amendment for Stream Reservation Protocol (SRP), PAR and 5C • 802.1Qcd - amendment for Application Virtual Local Area Networks (VLAN) Type, Length, Value (TLV), PAR and 5C • 802.3br - amendment for Specification and Management Parameters for Interspersing Express Traffic, PAR and 5C • 802.15.10 - recommended practice on Layer 2 Routing, PAR and 5C • P802.19.1 - PAR Extension Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
802.1Qcc • PAR • In general the PAR appears to be written by and for a community already knowledgeable in 802.1Q. However, one of the purposes of a PAR is to advertise the start of a new project to a broad community. 802.11 members can not read the PAR and determine the scope. Do you plan to issue a press release if the project is approved. How would you describe the project in a press release? • In 5.2.b • Change “amendment provides” to “amendment describes new” • Change “and provide:’ to “which provides:” • “Configurable SR (stream reservation) classes and streams “ wording is confusing. Can this be written more clearly? • What is the current stream limit. What will the new limit be? • What are the characteristics of the streams before and after Qcc? • What types of layer three support do you plan to offer? • 8.1 is empty. Could some of the 5C material be used to further explain the project? • 5.2, 5.4 and 5.5 do not seem to describe the same project – please clarify. • 5C • Technical feasibility • What is the AVnu Alliance and what is its relationship to 802.1Q? • Did AVnu supply use cases or requirements that could be referenced/made available? • What does C mean? “The technology re‐use, and other augmented methods are deemed proven for their reliability.” • What assumptions are being made of 802.11 and its ability to participate in SRP? Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
802.1Qcd • PAR • Does IETF provide any similar VLAN tag? • How does VLAN tag simplify management? • In 5.2.b, the last scope sentence is actually a need statement and should be moved to 5.5. • 5C • Slide 6 • Please define the scope of “end stations” or provide some examples. • The 5C alternately claims that Qcd will simplify network management and end station management – which is it? Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
802.15.10 • PAR • Section 1.2 Is this really a Recommended Practice or a Standard? • Section 5.2 Change to “This standard defines a protocol that routes packets in a dynamically changing network (changes on the order of a minute time frame), with minimal impact to route handling. • Section 5.4 • What L3 mechanisms are to be considered? • Section 8.1 Clarify the relationship between 15.4e and 15.10. Are there any new functions being added by 15.10? Does 15.10 use only features previously defined by 15.4e? • Is 15.10 for use only with 15.4 based networks? • Should the project be called 802.15.4.1 because this is a recommended practice (standard) for 15.4? • 5C Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
802.3br • PAR • 2.1 Change to: Standard for Ethernet Amendment Specification and Management Parameters for Interspersed Express Traffic. • 5.2.b Clarify the scope regarding whether the project will add only Qos parameters or also a management protocol. • 5.2.b Change “The scope of this project is to specify” to “This amendment specifies” • Is there any dependency between 802.1Qbu and 802.3br? • Please explain what “interspersed express traffic” is. Could the term be described in either 5.2 or 8.1? • 5.5 the last sentence does not seem to be appropriate. • 5.5 replace “, including but not limited to,” with “such as” • 5.6 Delete “stakeholders included to date include but are not limited to:” • 5C • Distinct Identity (slide 5) What does close to zero delay on converged networks mean? Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
802.19.1 extension • PAR • In 2 delete “and therefore an extension of the PAR is required” • Insert in 2 an explanation of expected project timeline to justify a two year extension. • Fix 3.5. What percentage of the Draft is stable: % (blank) • 5C • N/A Jon Rosdahl, CSR Technology Inc.
