 Project Scope: Specifications of mechanisms in MAC bridges to expedite delivery
    of time critical traffic and to limit the extent of high bandwidth multicast
    traffic within a Bridged Local Area Network.   Specification of mechanisms
    to classify traffic as supporting time critical services or requiring
    multicast filtering on the basis of MAC frame information.  Specification of
    optional protocol mechanism in MAC bridges to support dynamic registration
    for time critical delivery or filtering services by end stations.
    Specification of optional protocols between MAC Bridges to convey
    registration information in a Bridged Local Area Network.
 Project Purpose: To improve support of time critical and multicast intensive
    applications, including "multi-media" interactive applicatios, across
    bridged LANs.   To reduce the degree to which the level of multicast traffic
    and the loading levels selected for timely information delivery limit the
    number of attached stations and the throughput of Bridged Local Area
    Networks.   To facilitate Bridged Local Area Network support of the
    "hierarchical multicast" capabilities developed for internets, in a way that
    is compatible with their emerging network layer protocols.

    interoperable with existing Virtual Bridged Local Area Network equipment and
    will support a range of implemenntations.
 Project Purpose: 802.1Q Virtual LANs provides the equivalent of separate LANs
    over a single bridged LAN, using a single instance of the Spanning Tree
    Protocol.  Despite multiple independent implementations employing multiple
    instances of the Spanning Tree Protocol, there is currently no
    interoperability between different vendors, nor a coherent management
    framework for different techniques.  This standard will provide an
    architecture, protocols, and mappings for bridges to provide that

 Project Scope: IEEE 802.1Q specifies a single PVID variable (Port VLAN
    Identifier) for each port of a switch.  The configurable value of this
    single PVID variable specifies the VLAN into which frames untagged at
    ingress to the port are to be classified.  The project will develop a
    supplement to 802.1Q to specify optional additional classification rules per
    port based on the protocol (as designated in the frame by 802 family
    portocols identifiers) in the received untagged frame.  The project will
    consider compatibility and interoperability with existing 802.1Q bridges.
 Project Purpose: Classifying multiple protocols into a single VLAN often
    imposes VLAN boundaries that are inappropriate for some of the protocols,
    requiring th presence of a non-standard entity to relay between VLANs the
    frames bearing the protocols for which the VLAN boundaries are
    inappropriate.  The non-standard relay makes the boundaries of the VLANs
    transparent to the relayed protocols, depriving those protocols of the
    benefits of the VLANs.  The proposed supplement will benefit users of multi-
    protocol LANs by permitting them to specify VLAN structures suitable for
    each protocol present in a LAN, and removing the need for a non-standard
    relay function between VLANs.

 Project Scope: Specificatoin of enhancements to the auto-configuring mechanisms
    and management controls in 802.1D-1998 that constrain user data frames to
    all or part of a loop free topology.  Where redundant alternate bridges
    and/or connecting LANs are available, these enhancements will provide faster
    reconfiguration and restoration of the MAC service if LAN component failure
    occurs.
 Project Purpose: LAN based applications, including new voice and multi-media
    solutions, are increasingly mission critical and require much improved
    network availability and scalability.  An availability strategy that
    includes redundant bridges and LAN media, together with rapid failure
    detection and reconfiguration, allows the use of currently available cost
    effective LAN components.  Techniques that are broadly compatible with
    802.1D-1998, but not interoperable, are now emerging from multiple vendors.
    The proposed project will provide users with interoperable solutions.

 Project Scope: Specification of: (a) mechanisms to allow network access
    decisions, made using existing standard higher layer authentication and
    authorization protocols, to be enforced at individual ports of a networked
    system; (b) encoding of those protocols over 802 LANs where no suitable
    encoding is yet defined.  The project will not define or require systems
    that are enforcing network access decisions to: (c) process or interpret
    authentication information; (d) modify user data frames to secure
    conversations; (e) filter user data frames based on layer 2 or higher layer
    adressing or protocol information.  The access control mechanism will be
    usable on LAN ports of all types of systems attached to a LAN, including
    bridges, routers, servers and other end stations.
 Project Purpose: There is no standard mechanism that allows a network
    administrator to control access to and from a LAN segment based on the
    authenticated state of a port user.  Simple network connectivity affords
    anonymous access to enterprise data and the global Internet.  As 802 LANs
    are deployed in more accessible areas, there is an increasing need to
    authenticate and authorize basic network access.  The proposed project will
    provide common interoperable solutions using standards based authentication
    and authorization infrastructures already supporting schemes such as dial up
    access.

 Abstract: This standard is part of a family of local area network (LAN)
    standards dealing with the physical and data link layers as defined by the
    ISO Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model. It describes the
    functions, features, protocol, and services of the logical link control
    (LLC) sublayer, which constitutes the top sublayer in the data link layer of
    the ISO 8802 Local Area Network Protocol. The services required of, or by,
    the LLC sublayer at the logical interfaces with the network layer, the MAC
    sublayer, and the LLC sublayer management function are specified. The
    protocol data unit (PDU) structure for data communication systems is defined
    using bit-oriented procedures, as are two types of operation for data
    communication between service access points. In one type of operation, PDUs
    are exchanged between LLCs without the need for the establishment of a data
    link connection. In the other, a data link connection is established between
    two LLCs prior to any exchange of information-bearing PDUs.

    segment LANs and MANs, that supports high-speed implementations, efficient
    high performance operations, error detection across bridged LANs/MANs, and
    the ability for multiple connections between the same pair of LSAPs.  This
    protocol would be capable of coexisting with LLC Type 1, 2 and 3 operations.
    Protocol features used to accomplish support of high speed implementations
    might include features such as fixed header sizes, limited options, and the
    decoupling of the transmitter and receiver functions.  Protocol features
    used to accomplish support of efficient, high performance operations, might
    include features such as rate control, lightweight connection control,
    selective retransmission, multi-peer connections, and stream-oriented
    service.

 Project Scope: Provide a procedural option in Type 2 operation that will allow
    a receiver to tolerate the receipt of an already correctly received I PDU by
    discarding it instead of initiating a Frame Reject (FRMR) exception
    condition that would require the reset of the logical link control
    procedure.
 Project Purpose: Improve the overall throughput capability in those situations
    where the receiver is capable of making an acceptable judgement regarding
    the acceptableness of the I PDUs received, even when some of those frames
    are duplicates of frames already properly and correctly received.

 Abstract: This Local and Metropolitan Area Network standard specifies the media
    access control characteristics for the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with
    Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) access method. It also specifies the media,
    Medium Attachment Unit (MAU) and physical layer repeater unit for 10 Mb/s
    baseband and broadband systems and it provides a 1 Mb/s baseband
    implementation. Specifications for MAU types 10BASE5, 10BASE2, FOIRL (fiber
    optic inter-repeater link), 10BROAD36, 1BASE5, and 10BASE-T are included.
    System considerations for multisegment 10 Mb/s baseband networks are
    provided. Layer and sublayer interface specifications are aligned to the ISO
    Open Systems Interconnection Basic Reference Model and 8802 models. The
    8802-3 internal model is defined and used.

 Project Scope: 1.  The CSMA/CD access method of IEEE 802.3 will be retained
    without change.  Therefore, the only change to Clause 4 Media access Control
    and Clause 6 PLS Service Specifications will be to add a subclause 4.4.2.3
    containing the parameterized values for 100 Mb/s operation of the MAC.
    Management definitions will be provided that build upon the existing set
    with minimal changes. 2.  The link segment phyical layer specification and
    the multiport repeater specification will be optimized for operation over
    100 meter TP links supporting one or more of the horizontal wiring schemes
    specified in EIA/TIA-568:1991 and TSB-36.  The architecture will be
    sufficiently open that other physical later specifications may be added as
    future projects. A media independent interface (MII) will be defined which
    will allow operation of multiple physical later implementations under the
    MAC. 3.  It is recognized that there may be some minor editorial changes
    required for editorial alignment.  For example: "The PLS is found in
    chapter7" would require correction.l
 Project Purpose: This standard will provide a higher speed capability for 802.3
    LANs at 100 Mb/s, made possible by recent developments in high spped
    signaling, particularly on unshielded twisted pair and advances in silicon
    technology. It will afford significant performance improvements with minimal
    vendor and customer investments by leveraging the infrastructure of 802.3
    research, development and market deployment. The design focus for Higher
    Speed CSMA/CD is better performance for existing applications that are
    characterized by bursty traffic.  This standard is also expected to support
    emerging applications in the market.
 Abstract: The ISO/IEC CSMA/CD Media Access Control (MAC) is coupled with a
    family of new Physical Layer specifications to achieve 100 Mb/s operation.
    Known collectively as 100BASE-T, this family of Physical Layer
    specifications includes 100BASE-T4, which uses four pairs of ISO/IEC 11801:
    1995 Category 3, 4, or 5 balanced cable; 100BASE-TX, which uses two pairs of
    Category 5 balanced cable or 150 ohm shielded balanced cable; and 100BASE-
    FX, which uses two multi-mode fibers. The two 100BASE-X specifications
    (100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX) reused portions of the 100 Mb/s physical
    signaling specifications originally developed for Fibre Distributed Data

 History: PAR APP: Jun 14, 1995, BD APP: Mar 20, 1997, ANSI APP: Sep 5, 1997
 Project Scope: To define the specification for bi-directional, simultaneous
    transmission and reception of IEEE 802.3 frames over media capable of
    supporting simultaneous bi-directional signaling (twisted pair and/or
    fiber).  Flow control mechanisms will be addressed as relevant.
 Project Purpose: This standard will provide a higher performance option to the
    existing standard that allows performance to be optimized for IEEE 802.3
    LANs (currently 10 and 100 Mb/s).  This performance enhancement is made
    possible by the separate transmit and receive channels of twosted pair
    and/or fiber technologies.  This standard will allow significant performance
    improvement and will provide a basis for interoperation of products referred
    to as 802.3 Full Duplex.
 Abstract: Necessary changes and additions are made to provide for an
    additional, full duplex mode of operation on a speed-independent basis.
    Changes are made to the MAC and selected Physical Layer implementations
    (10BASE-T, 10BASE-FL, 100BASE-T) to support full duplex.  A mechanism for
    pause-based flow control is also added.

 Project Scope: A physical layer will be defined for 100BASE-T networks
    operating over cabling plants where two pairs of ISO/IEC 11801 Category 3 or
    better balanced twisted pair cabling are available.  The standard will
    additionally be compatible with all other currently planned work.
 Project Purpose: This standard will allow 100 Mb/s operation on the majority of
    balanced cable (e.g. twisted pair) plants in use today, including virtually
    all of the cabling specified in the 10BASE-T standard.  It will increase the
    availability of the 100 Mb/s speed to 802.3 LANs where only two pairs of
    Category 3 or better balanced cabling are available.  This is a significant
    share of the current 10BASE-T user base.
 Abstract: Changes and additions to the 100BASE-T portion of IEEE Std 802.3 are
    provided to specify an additional 100 Mb/s transceiver type 100BASE-T, which
    can support full duplex operation over two pairs of Category 3 or better

    characteristics of the transmission medium; the signaling method used; the
    frame formats transmitted; the actions of a station upon receipt of a frame;
    the services provided at the conceptual interface between the Medium Access
    Control (MAC) sublayer and the Logical Link Control (LLC) sublayer; and the
    actions, entities and values used by management. There are four medium
    characteristics and signaling methods: 5 and 10 Mb/s phase-coherent FSK; 1,
    5, and 10 Mb/s broadband; 10 and 20 Mb/s fiberoptic; and 1 Mb/s phase-

 History: PAR APP: Dec 8, 1998
 Project Scope: To create a single ISO/IEC Token Ring standard, by performing a
    technical merge and clarification of ISO/IEC 8802-5:1998 and its amendments.
    The scope does not include the development of new technical capabilities,
    but does provide for clarification and correction of existing functions and
    features.
 Project Purpose: To provide a single cohesive document describing the various
    capabilities and options for Token Ring as defined within the family of IEEE
    802.5 standards.  Various sections of the standard were written at different
    times, based on slightly different models.  Therefore, the revision is
    required to rewrite the standard bringing all sections together under the
    same global view.

    provided include telephony, high speed and high quality isochronous service,
    ISDN access and high speed and high quality packet service such as LAN
    interconnection, host interconnection, and workstation connection across a
    metropolitan area.      The standard will use the installed and planned base
    of publioc digital transmission equipment.  This will include media such as
    optical fibre accessed through standard physical interfaces including CCITT
    G.703.
 Abstract: This standard is part of a family of standards for local area
    networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs) that deal with the
    Physical and Data Link Layers as defined by the ISO Open Systems
    Interconnection Reference Model. It defines a high-speed shared medium
    access protocol for use over a dual, counterflowing, unidirectional bus
    subnetwork. The Physical Layer and Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) Layer
    are required to support a Logical Link Control (LLC) Sublayer by means of a
    connectionless Medium Access Control (MAC) Sublayer service in a manner
    consistent with other IEEE 902 networks. Additional DQDB Layer functions are
    specified as a framework for other services. These additional functions will
    support Isochronous Service Users and Connection-Oriented Data Service
    users, but their implementation is not required for conformance.

 Abstract: This standard specifies the design, installation, and test parameters
    for broadband cable medium.  The medium supports the communication of IEEE
    802.3b, IEEE 802.4, video, and narrowband radio frequency (RF) modem
    devices. The broadband bus topology consists of amplifiers, coaxial cable,
    and directional couplers that create a full duplex directional medium.
    Inbound signals flow from user outlet transmitters to a central headend
    location. The headend processes the signals and then transmits the signals
    via an outbound path to all user outlets. The medium utilizes frequency
    division multiplexing (FDN), which supports the simultaneous coexistence of
    services. Each service is assigned a unique inbound and outbound  channel
    frequency.

 Project Scope: This standard will specify procedures for P, C, B and D channel
    services for interworking between IEEE 802.9 Access Units.   This standard
    will specify the Access Unit Architectural Model and Recommended procedures
    to enable the provisioning to support P, C, B and D Channel Services for
    interworking across an Access Unit which serves one 802.9 subnetwork, for
    the purpose of connecting to integrated services workstations connected to
    another 802.9 subnetwork, served by the latter IEEE 802.9 Access Unit. As
    part of this work topic, the minumum/optical MIB elements for the Access
    Unit required to effect AU to AU interworking will be specified.  With the
    access unit's dual role as both an agent to a LAN manager and an agent to
    the WAN manager, the necessary procedures to coordinate the AU will also be

 Project Purpose: Since the application users will find it necessary to
    construct a network consisting of multiple IEEE 802.9 subnetworks (each
    consisting of an access unit with its subtending integrated services
    workstations), it is important that an architectural model and a common set

 Project Scope: Generate a standard which will allow power to be provided to
    IEEE 802.9 OSTEs for basic communications services over the same twisted
    pair cabling that provides the physical layer connectivity for theIEEE 802.9
    ISTE.
 Project Purpose: This standard will facilitate the utilization of the IEEE
    ISLAN Standard ISTEs in creating an integrated desktop environment in which
    the ISTE functions as a primary means of communications for voice as well as
    video and packetized data.  This standard will allow a means of providing
    power to the ISTE in the event of a general power failure so that the ISTE
    may still be used for emergency functions as a minimum.

 Project Scope: The SILs model describes the architectural framework that 802.10
    is using to provide security in IEEE 802 LANs and MANs and delineates the
    scope of each of the other two standards and relationships between them.
    The two protocol standards described in the Model are Secure Data Exchange
    (SDE) and Key Management (KMP).  The model also describes how SDE and KMP
    work in end stations and bridges, as well as how they are used to protect
    management traffic.
 Project Purpose: The Model addresses issues that apply to all of SILs.  It
    enables implementers and users of SILS to understand how the SILS protocols
    operate together and how each protoc9ol individually operates in an OSI
    environment, as well as an IEEE 802 environment.  The Model also describes
    implementations of SILS protocols in end stations, as well as transparent
    implementations in IEEE 802 bridges.

 Project Scope: To define a standard for services, protocols, data formats, and
    interfaces that will allow secure IEEE 802 LAN products to interoperate.
    IEEE 802.10 has specified three areas for standardization: Secure Data
    Exchange, Key Management, and Security Management, and the objects necessary
    to manage each protocol.   The goals of each of these areas of SILS are to
    be as independent as possible of any particular encryption algorithm, such
    as DES or RSA, and of the transmission media.  The work in each area is
    based on the OSI Seven Layer model (IS 7498) and on the OSI Security
    Architecture (IS 7498/2). The Key Management Standard specifies a Layer 7
    protocol that will provide secure automated management of the cryptographic
    keys to be used by the Secure Data Exchange at Layer 2 or by Security
    Management at Layer 7.  The standard will draw on work already done for Key
    Management by other standards groups.  The ANSI X9.E9 group has written a
    Key Management standard for use by the Banking Community.  ECMA TC32/TG9 has
    proposed a framework for secure applications, and the Secure Data Network
    System (SDNS) project has developed a key management standard for use with
    public key algorithms.  The 802.10 Key Management standard will consider
    each of these standards to determine if the standard or some form of the
    standard is appropriate for use with LANs. The appendices to the SILS Key
    Management standard will provide explanatory information for the standard.
    The Rationale for Security Services Appendix will explain why the services
    that Key Management provides are appropriate for the management of
    cryptographic keys on LANs and how those services address the threats posed
    to the security of automated key distribution on LANs.  The Examples of
    Algorithms Appendix will give an example of the use of Key Management
    withparticular algorithms.  The Philosophy of Key Management Appendix will
    provide guidelines on the manual aspects of key management such as the
    secure distribution of Initialization Keys.
 Project Purpose: The purpose is threefold.  First, the standard must specify
    the minimally acceptable security services to be supported primarily by
    encryption for IEEE 802 LANs. Second, the standard must define logical and
    physical mechanisms for achieving these services; this includes the managed
    objects required to support the processing to provide the services.  Finally
    and most important, the standard must maximize interoperability of products
    in an open systems interconnection architecture.

    IEEE 802.10 has specified three areas for standardization: Secure Data
    Exchange, Key Management, and Security Management, and the objects necessary
    to manage each protocol.   The goals of each of these areas of SILS are to
    be as independent as possible of any particular encryption algorithm, such
    as DES or RSA, and of the transmission media.  The work in each area is
    based on the OSI Seven Layer model (IS 7498) and on the OSI Security
    Architecture (IS 7498/2). The Security Management Standard will specify a
    Layer 7 set of services, and if necessary a protocol, that will provide
    secure management of the objects associated with the Secure Data Exchange
    protocol, the Key Management protocol, and the Security Management protocol.
    The standard will use any work in progress on Security Management.  If, at
    any time, a Security Management standard is developed by ISO, that standard
    will be closely evaluated for use on LANs and comments will be submitted to
    change the ISO standard rather than continuing the definition of security
    management within 802.10. The approaches to be evaluated by 802.10 for
    security management are the use of ISO, CMIP, Common Management Information
    Protocol (DIS 9596/2), and the use of IEEE 802.1, Systems Management.  The
    use of the Secure Data Exchange to provide confidentiality and integrity for
    CMIP or 802.1 will be explored.  Also, 802.10 will investigate the
    definition of a separate protocol that does not depend on the security
    services of the Secure Data Exchange, but provides all the security services
    required for secure management at Layer 7.  The goals of the 802.10 Security
    Management definition are to assure first that 802.10 objects can be managed
    securely and second that the security management protocol could be used by
    other protocols to manage their objects securely.
 Project Purpose: The purpose is threefold.  First, the standard must specify
    the minimally acceptable security services to be supported primarily by
    encryption for IEEE 802 LANs. Second, the standard must define logical and
    physical mechanisms for achieving these services; this includes the managed
    objects required to support the processing to provide the services.  Finally
    and most important, the standard must maximize interoperability of products
    in an open systems interconnection architecture. Modern LANs provide users
    connectivity to network resources.  Distributed applications and shared
    resources allow users easy access to the network data.  The intended result
    is that data is readily available to all users.  However, as use of LAN
    resources increases in commercial and military environments, the data
    security threat increases.  Manufacturing design data, financial analysis
    data, and health data cannot be protected from modification, disclosure, or
    unauthorized access without LAN security.  The communciation required
    between these systems cannot be achieved without interoperability of the
    security mechanisms protecting these systems. To assure secure
    interoperability, the SILS Security Management standard must consider the
    issues of cryptography and of IEEE 802 LAN compatibility.  The cryptography
    issue is to define Security Management to be as independent of any
    particular algorithm as possible.  The issue of IEEE 802 LAN compatibility
    is that the security mechanisms of Security Management should not require
    changes to the existing IEEE 802 LAN standards.  This should not become an
    issue as Security Management could be defined either as a Layer 7 set of
    service or as a Layer 7 protocol or could use the existing 802.1 System
    Management protocol, so it would not affect the existing 802 protocol.

 Project Scope: The project will evaluate the possibility orf taking advantage
    of the provisions for rate expansion that are in place on the current
    standard PHYs.  The 802.11 MAC defines a mechanism for operation of
    stastions supporting different data rates in the same area.  The current
    802.11 standard already defines the basic rages of 1Mbit/s and 2 Mbit/s for
    both Frequency Hopping *FH) and Direct Sequence (DS) PHYs.  The two rates
    are supported by having same header for both rates with length and rate
    information passed in the header at the lowest ("basic") rate; then the body
    of the packet is transmitted at the rate chosen and with the corresponding
    modulation method.  The header structure of the two PHYs already supports
    passing rate information up to 4.5 Mbit/s (in 0.5 Mbit/s increments) for FH
    and up to 25.5 Mbit/s (in 0.1 Mbit/s increments) for DS.  The proposed PAR
    targets further developing the provisions for enhanced data rate capability
    of 802.11 networks.  The 802.11 MAC incorporates already the interpretation
    of this information and the computation of expected packet duration even if
    the specific station does not support the rate at which the packet was sent.
    The 802.11 MAC is compatible and will accommodate the higher PHY rates.
 Project Purpose: To extend the performance and the range of applications of the
    802.11 compatible networks in the 2.4 GHz band by increasing the data rate
    achieveable by such devices.  This technology will be beneficial for
    improved access to fixed network LAN and internetwork infrastructure
    (including access to other wireless LANs) via a network of access points, as
    well as creation of high performance ad-hoc networks.    The purpose of
    802.11a is also for higher data rates, however, that project is for
    operation in the 5 GHz band, whereas this project is for operation in the
    2.4 GHz band.

 History: PAR APP: Mar 30, 2000
 Project Scope: To develop recommended practices for an Inter-Access Point
    Protocol (IAPP) which provides the necessary capabilities to achieve multi-
    vendor Access Point interoperability across a Distribution System supporting
    IEEE P802.11 Wireless LAN Links.  This IAPP will be developed for the
    following environment(s):  (1) A Distribution System consisting of IEEE 802
    LAN components supporting an IETF IP environment.  (2) Others as deemed
    appropriate.  This Recommended Practice Document shall support the IEEE
    P802.11 standard revision(s).
 Project Purpose: IEEE P802.11 specifies the MAC and PHY layers of a Wireless
    LAN system and includes the basic architecture of such systems, including
    the concepts of Access Points and Distribution Systems.  Implementation of
    these concepts where purposely not defined by P802.11 because there are many
    ways to create a Wireless LAN system.  Additionally many of the possible
    implementation approaches involve concepts from higher network layers.
    While this leaves great flexibility in Distributions System and Access Point
    functional design, the associated cost is that physical Access Point devices
    from different vendors are unlikely to inter-operate across a Distribution
    System due to the different approaches taken to Distribution System design.
    As P802.11 based systems have grown in popularity, this limitation has
    become an impediment to WLAN market growth.  At the same time it has become
    clear that there are a small number of Distribution System environments that
    comprise the bulk of the commercial WLAN system installations.  This project
    proposes to specify the necessary information that needs to be exchanged
    between Access Points to support the P802.11 DS functions.  The information
    exchanges required will be specified for, one or more distribution Systems;
    in a manner sufficient to enable the implementation of Distribution Systems
    containing Access Points from different vendors which adhere to the
    recommended practices.

 History: PAR APP: Aug 17, 2001
 Project Scope: This project will develop extensions and modifications to IEEE
    802.16.2-2001 addressing two distinct topics. The first topic is the
    coexistence between multipoint systems and point-to-point systems in the
    frequency range 10-66 GHz, with a focus on the range 23.5 to 43.5 GHz. Two
    types of point-to-point systems will be considered: those used by fixed BWA
    operators and those used as individually assigned links, commonly licensed
    on a "first-come, first-served" basis. The second topic is coexistence among
    fixed BWA systems operating in licensed bands within the frequency range 2-
    11 GHz. Clarifications and updates to the existing standard will also be
    considered.
 Project Purpose: The purpose of this Amendment is to provide additional
    coexistence guidelines to license holders, service providers, deployment
    groups, and system integrators, covering coexistence with point-to-point
    systems (primarily from 23.5 - 43.5 GHz) and coexistence among licensed
    fixed BWA systems operating in the 2-11 GHz frequency range. The equipment
    parameter values contained within this amended practice will benefit license
    holders, equipment and component vendors, and industry associations by
    facilitating the deployment and operation of fixed BWA systems while
    minimizing the need for case-by-case coordination. A further purpose is to
    encourage voluntary procedures that facilitate a simpler licensing process
    for systems operating below 11 GHz, particularly in the 2.5 GHz MMDS/ITFS
    bands in the USA.

 History: PAR APP: Sep 16, 1999
 Project Scope: This project covers development of a Recommended practice for
    the design and coordinated deployment of broadband wireless access (BWA)
    systems to minimize interference so as to maximize system performance and/or
    service quality.  This practice will provide for coexistence using frequency
    and spatial separation and will cover three areas.  First, it will recommend
    limits of in-band and out-of-band emissions from BWA transmitters through
    parameters including radiated power, spectral masks and antenna patterns.
    Second, it will recommend receiver tolerance parameters, including noise
    floor degradation and blocking performance, for intereference received from
    other BWA systems as well as from other terrestrial and satellite systems.
    Third, it will provide coordination parameters, including band plans,
    separation distances, and power flux density limits, to enable successful
    deployment of BWA systems with tolerable interference.  The scope includes
    interference between systems deployed across geographic boundaries in the
    same frequency band and systems deployed in the same geographic area in
    different frequency bands (including different systems, deployed by a single
    license-holder in sub-bands of the licensees authorized bandwidth).  The
    scope does not cover coexistence issues due to intra-system frequency re-use
    wihin the operator's licensed band, and it does not consider the impact of
    interference created by BWA systems on non-BWA terrestrial and satellite
    systems.
 Project Purpose: The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide
    coexistence guidelines to license holders, service providers, deployment
    groups, and system integrators.  The equipment parameters contained wihtin
    this practice will benefit equipment and component vendors and industry
    associations by providing design targets.  The benefits of this practice
    will include:  Coexistence of different systems with higher assurance that
    system performance objectives will be met; Minimal need for case-by-case
    interference studies and coordination between operators to resolve
    interference issues; Preservation of a favorable electromagnetic environment
    for deployment and operation of BWA systems, including future systems
    compliant to the 802.16 interoperability standard; Optimization of coverage
    and spectrum utilization; Cost-effective system deployment.

    modify applicable elements from the following: · MAC: IEEE 802.16 · PHY:
    IEEE 802.11a; ETSI BRAN HIPERLAN/2
 Project Purpose: To enable rapid worldwide deployment of innovative, cost-
    effective, and interoperable multivendor broadband wireless access products.
    To facilitate competition in broadband access by providing alternatives to
    wireline broadband access. To facilitate coexistence studies, encourage
    consistent worldwide allocation, and accelerate the commercialization of
    broadband wireless access spectrum. This Amendment enhances the original
    project by extending it to license-exempt bands. It will identify techniques
    to tolerate interference in the unlicensed bands and facilitate strategies
    for coexistence with other unlicensed band systems such as 802.11 and
    802.15. It will encourage consistent worldwide spectrum allocation and
    accelerate the commercialization of unlicensed broadband wireless access
    spectrum. Utilization of unlicensed frequencies will address a market that
    includes residences, small office-home office (SOHO), telecommuters, and
    small and medium enterprises (SME).

 Project Scope: Define a Resilient Packet Ring Access Protocol for use in Local,
    Metropolitan, and Wide Area  Networks, along with appropriate Physical Layer
    specifications for transfer of data packets at rates  scalable to multiple
    gigabits per second.
 Project Purpose: The standard will define a very high-speed network protocol
    that is optimized for packet transmission in resilient ring topologies.
    Current standards are either optimized for TDM transport, or optimized for
    mesh topologies.  There is no high-speed (greater than 1 billion bits per
    second) networking standard in existence, which is optimized for packet
    transmission in ring topologies.

 Project Scope: Provision of a small number of Ethernet type values for
    prototype and experimental use. Provision of a mechanism for vendor
    assignment of protocol identifiers for use with proprietary protocols.
 Project Purpose: The existing Ethernet Type number space is a finite resource.
    In order to develop protocols that will use an Ethernet Type value as a
    protocol identifier, it is necessary for vendors to apply for type values
    from this limited number space, both for development purposes and for
    assignment to the final protocol. This can lead to wastage of the number
    space for no useful purpose. This amendment to IEEE Standard 802 will allow
    prototype and experimental protocols to be developed without consuming type
    values, and will also provide a means whereby protocol developers can assign
    permanent protocol identifier values without consuming type values.

 Abstract: This standard is part of a family of local area network (LANs) and
    metropolitan area network (MANs) that deals with the physical and data link
    layers as defined by the ISO Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model.
    The functions, features, protocol, and services of the Logical Link Control
    (LLC) sublayer, which constitutes the top sublayer in the data link layer of
    the ISO/IEC 8802 Local Area Network Protocol, are described. The services
    required of, or by, the LLC sublayer at the logical interfaces with the
    network layer, the MAC sublayer, and the LLC sublayer management function
    are specified. The protocol data unit (PDU) structure for data communication
    systems is defined using bit-oriented procedures, as are three types of
    operation for data communication between service access points. In the first
    type of operation, PDUs are exchanged between LLCs without the need for the
    establishment of a data link connection. In the second type of operation, a
    data link connection is established between two LLCs prior to any exchange
    of information-bearing PDUs.  In the third type of operation, PDUs are
    exchanged between LLCs without the need for the establishment of a data link
    connection, but stations are permitted to both send data and request the
    return of data simultaneously.

 Abstract: This Local and Metropolitan Area Network standard, ISO/IEC 8802-5:
    1995, is part of a family of local area network (LAN) standards dealing with
    the physical and data link layers as defined by the ISO Open System
    Interconnection Reference Model. Its purpose is to provide compatible
    interconnection of data processing equipment by means of a local area
    network using the token-passing ring access method. The frame format,
    including delimiters, addressing, and frame check sequence, are defined, as
    are medium access control (MAC) frames, timers, and priority stacks. The MAC
    protocol is defined. The finite-state machine and state tables are
    supplemented with a prose description of the algorithms. The physical layer
    (PHY) functions of symbol encoding and decoding, symbol time, and latency
    buffering are defined. The services provided by the MAC to the station
    management (SMT) and the services provided by the PHY to SMT and the MAC are
    described. These services are defined in terms of service primitives and
    associated parameters. The 4 and 16 Mb/s, shielded twisted pair attachment
    of the station to the medium, including the medium interface connector (MIC)
    are also defined. The applications environment for the LAN is intended to be
    commercial and light industrial. The use of token ring LANs in home and
    heavy industrial environments, while not precluded, has not been considered
    in the development of the standard. A Protocol Implementation Conformance
    Statement (PICS) proforma is provided as an annex to the standard.

 Abstract: This standard is part of a family of standards for local area
    networks (LANs) and metropolitan area networks (MANs) that deals with the
    Physical and Data Link Layers as defined by the International Organization
    for Standardization (ISO) Open Systems Interconnection Reference Model. A
    high-speed shared medium access protocol for use over a dual,
    counterflowing, unidirectional bus subnetwork is defined. The Physical Layer
    and Distributed Queue Dual Bus (DQDB) Layer are required to support a
    Logical Link Control (LLC) Sublayer by means of a connectionless Media
    Access Control (MAC) Sublayer service in a manner consistent with other IEEE
    802 networks. Additional DQDB Layer functions are specified as a framework
    for other services. These additional functions will support Isochronous
    Service Users and Connection-Oriented Data Service Users, but their
    implementation is not required for conformance.

 History: PAR APP: Sep 16, 1999, BD APP: Jul 6, 2001, ANSI APP: Nov 1, 2001
 Project Scope: This project covers development of a Recommended Practice for
    the design and coordinated deployment of fixed broadband wireless access
    (BWA)systems operating from 10-66 GHz (with a focus on 23.5-43.5 GHz)in
    order to minimize interference so as to maximize system performance and/or
    service quality. This practice will provide for coexistence using frequency
    and spatial separation and will cover three areas. First,it will recommend
    limits of in-band and out-of-band emissions from BWA transmitters through
    parameters including radiated power,spectral masks and antenna patterns.
    Second,it will recommend receiver tolerance parameters, including noise
    floor degradation performance, for interference received from other BWA
    systems. Third,it will provide coordination parameters,including separation
    distances,and power flux density limits,to enable successful deployment of
    BWA systems with tolerable interference. The scope includes interference
    between systems deployed across geographic boundaries in the same frequency
    band and systems deployed in the same geographic area in different frequency
    bands (including different systems deployed by a single license-holder in
    sub-bands of the licensees authorized bandwidth). The scope does not cover
    coexistence issues due to intrasystem frequency re-use within the operator
    's licensed band,and it does not consider the impact of interference created
    by BWA systems on non-BWA terrestrial and satellite systems.
 Project Purpose: The purpose of this recommended practice is to provide
    coexistence guidelines to license holders,service providers,deployment
    groups,and system integrators.The equipment parameters contained within this
    practice will benefit equipment and component vendors and industry
    associations by providing design targets. The benefits of this practice will
    include: · Coexistence of different systems with higher assurance that
    system performance objectives will be met. · Minimal need for case-by-case
    interference studies and coordination between operators to resolve
    interference issues. · Preservation of a favorable electromagnetic
    environment for deployment and operation of BWA systems, including future
    systems compliant to IEEE 802.16 interoperability standards. · Improved
    spectrum utilization. · Cost-effective system deployment.
