Re: [802SEC] 802.3ad PAR for Priority-based Flow Control MAC Control Frame
It is our intention to submit this PAR at the closing EC meeting in March, so consider
this to be pre-circulation under the 30-day rule.

Subject: 802.3ad PAR for Priority-based Flow Control MAC Control Frame
This proposed PAR is to add a MAC Control Frame to IEEE 802.3 to support 802.1Qbb
Priority-based Flow Control. Note that the 802.1 Working Group will be responsible for
this PAR. As usual when doing a cross group PAR, 802.3 voters who request it will be added
to the Working Group voting pool on this project.
The PAR is at:
http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2008/bb-thaler-pfc-frame-par-1108.pdf
Since this PAR is to support the 802.1Qbb PAR, the same 5 criteria applies to it:
http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2008/new-dcb-thaler-draft-pfc-5c-0208-v3.pdf
I've updated the PAR number on My Project to 802.3ad, but my hard drive crashed Monday and
apparently Acrobat wasn't loaded onto my new drive correctly so I wasn't able to create a
pdf with the update. That is the only change from the pdf above.
Regards,
Pat
