802a - Ethertype Playpen
IEEE Std 802 provides an overview to the family of IEEE 802 Standards, describes the relationship of the IEEE 802 Standards to the Open Systems Interconnection Basic Reference Model [ISO/IEC 7498-1: 1994] and explains the relationship of these standards to higher layer protocols, provides a standard for the structure of LAN MAC addresses, and provides a standard for the identification of public, private, and standard protocols. This Amendment to IEEE Std 802 provides a means whereby prototype protocols and vendor-specific protocols may be developed and implemented without the need to register a distinct Ethertype value for each instance of use.
