802.1ad - Provider Bridges
This amendment to IEEE Std 802.1Q-1998 is intended to develop an
architecture and bridge protocols, compatible and interoperable with
existing Bridged Local Area Network protocols and equipment, to
provide separate instances of the MAC services to multiple independent
users of a Bridged Local Area Network in a manner that does not
require cooperation among the users, and requires a minimum of
cooperation between the users and the provider of the MAC service.
This amendment will enable a Service Provider to offer the equivalent
of separate LAN Segments, Bridged or Virtual Bridged LANs, to a number
of users, over the Provider's bridged network.
