Title: RE: [RPRWG] Potential Problem with P802.17/D0.1 PHY proposal Draft 0.34 and related .pdf slides=incorrect mapping to SONET/SDH

Alan,

regarding point 2

I took a look at GR-253, G.707 and T1.105.02 and could not find PPP specifically called out as a requirement.  So I don't see any problem with using the "HDLC over SONET" code for the PSL as long as we comply with the stated requirements which include byte synchronous hdlc, payload scrambling etc..

I feel the PSL defines the mapping onto the SONET/SDH payload but does not restrict the use of the mapping to one protocol or another.  If the PSL indicates "Asynchronous mapping for DS3", it does not preclude c-bit parity mode or m13 mode or hdlc encoding.

I agree with you in regards to the use of the term "POS".  POS does imply PPP but that was not the intent.  We should replace "POS" with "HDLC over SONET/SDH" and remove any references to PPP or the RFCs that define PPP or POS.  Thanks for pointing this out.
