The following request for agenda time for a "Call for interest" has been received from John D'Ambrosia. It will be discussed at the IEEE 802 LMSC July 2006 Plenary meeting in San Diego, CA, USA. If you have any questions please get in touch with either John D'Ambrosia or Bob Grow (IEEE 802.3 Chair) directly.
Rising volumes of data are causing congestion to occur at various aggregation points, such as within internet exchanges, data centers, cluster computing, and the enterprise. 10 Gigabit Ethernet links in combination with 802.3ad Link Aggregation are being deployed at these aggregation points; however, projected bandwidth requirements indicate that in the future this will be insufficient. It is the time to study the effort, scope the task, and start towards the development of a standards-based solution to bring relief to these congestion points. This call for interest is to request the formation of a Higher Speed Study Group (HSSG) to begin this task.
