802.1AC - Media Access Control (MAC) Services Definition
This standard defines the Medium Access Control Service found in Local and Metropolitan Area Networks, and the Internal Sublayer Service and Extended Internal Sublayer Service provided within MAC Bridges, in abstract terms of a) their semantics, primitive actions and events, b) the parameters of, interrelationship between, and valid sequences of, these actions and events.
The MAC service was originally defined within an ISO/IEC standard (ISO/IEC 15802-1), and the Internal Sublayer Services are defined within IEEE 802.1D and IEEE 802.1Q. The purpose of this standard is to revise the documentation of these existing services within a single, common service definition standard. It is not the purpose of this project to make technical changes to these services.
