802.1ASeb - Amendment: Optional Use of Announce
PAR Comments:
5.2.b Editorial.
Suggested revision for consideration: “This amendment provides additions and modifications to enable the Announce message functionality to be optional on new implementations, while maintain the ability implementations to support
backward compatibility, interoperability, and full conformance with IEEE Std 1588™-2019. Protocols, procedures, and managed objects are updated if and as required to reflect the availability and use of Announce.
This amendment also includes technical and editorial corrections in the description of existing IEEE Std 802.1AS functionality.”
In 8.1:
Suggested revision for consideration is to change second to last item (reference to 6.1.2) to be the fully qualified name “IEEE Std 802.1d IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks: Overview and Architecture Amendment
1: Allocation of Uniform Resource Name (URN) Values in IEEE 802® Standards”
