IEEE 802.1Qbg – IEEE Standard for Local and metropolitan area networks–Media Access Control (MAC) Bridges and Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks–Amendment 21: Edge Virtual Bridging

Amendment Standard – Superseded.This amendment to IEEE Std 802.1Q-2011 specifies protocols, procedures, and managed objects that– Provide for the discovery, configuration, and control of a pair of direct-attached limited-function Service VLAN (S-VLAN) components to extend the services of a customer bridge to remote ports and enable coexistence of multiple services onstation-resident ports (e.g., embedded bridging).– Provide for discovery, configuration, and control of a Reflective Relay Service for a bridge port.– Provide for discovery of, and coordinated configuration of, edge relays (ERs) and other devices that utilize the reflective relay service.– Provide for dynamic profile-driven port configuration.
