[ANCP] Layer 2 Parameters in the Protocol document

[Menachem.Dodge at ecitele.com]

Hi,

        I have a question
regarding the "Access-Loop-Circuit-ID" as defined in the document
"draft-wadhwa-gsmp-l2control-configuration-01.txt".

        In
the case of an Ethernet based local loop the format is defined as:

        "Access-Node-Identifier
eth slot/port[:vlan-id]" meaning that the vlan-id is optional.

        In
the case of an ATM based local loop the format is defined as:

        "Access-Node-Identifier
atm slot/port:vpi.vci"  meaning that the vpi.vci is mandatory.

        I
would like this changed to "Access-Node-Identifier atm slot/port[:vpi.vci]"
meaning that the vpi.vci is optional.

        This
would allow for multiple vpi/vci(s) on the same port as a message could
be sent  without the vpi.vci field.

I have a similar question regarding the "Access-Aggregation-Circuit-ID-ASCII"
as defined in the document "draft-wadhwa-gsmp-l2control-configuration-01.txt".

        In
the case of an Ethernet based local loop the format is defined as:

        "Access-Node-Identifier
eth slot/port[:inner-vlan-id][:outer-vlan-id]" meaning that the vlan-ids
are optional.

        In
the case of an ATM based local loop the format is defined as:

        "Access-Node-Identifier
atm slot/port:vpi.vci"  meaning that the vpi.vci is mandatory.

        I
would like this changed to "Access-Node-Identifier atm slot/port[:vpi.vci]"
meaning that the vpi.vci is optional.

        
Thank you kindly.

Best Regards,
Menachem
