To: John Hart/HQ/3Com From: Himanshu Shah Subject: Re: Re: REVISION TO SDE Cc: Tony Jeffree <100271.522@compuserve.com>, Paul Langille , 802-1 I agree with John's assertion. There is no need to be locked into 802.10's security with VLAN tagging. They should be decoupled for those who may not care about the security. Besides, as we indulge more into VLAN standard, we may realize the requirement for more info within the headers, besides the VLAN tag. 802.1 defined encapsulation may provide that. Himanshu
