All, As mentioned by Max, this proposed 802c PAR is relevant to the discussions we are currently having about the use of the local MAC domain. The intention of the proposed project is to describe the rules for assigning
local MAC addresses: From PAR: “5.2.b. Scope of the project: The amendment will provide recommendations and rules for using the local address space. This will allocate a portion of the address space for protocols using an IEEE Registration
Authority assigned Company ID. Another portion of the local address space will be allocated for assignment by local administrators.” From CSD: “A first step in enabling protocols for claiming or assignment of Local MAC addresses is to organize the MAC address space so that entities can be assigned a block of
the Local Address space through the Company ID (CID) as a default. Another part of the space will be defined for local administration.” It is assumed that the Privacy group should be able to leverage from this project/specification, so we should consider providing inputs.

FYI, for the case you are neither subscribed to the [802SEC] list nor to the [802.1] list. The project may provide the basic rules and protocols for dynamically assigning MAC addresses. And the project may appreciate input on the privacy use case. Privacy is currently not mentioned in the PAR. Bye Max From: ***** IEEE 802 Executive Committee List ***** [mailto:STDS-802-SEC@xxxxxxxx]
On Behalf Of ext Glenn Parsons Folks,
The July 802.1 plenary authorized the 802.1 interim to draft a PAR & CSD for on the local address space. The proposed PAR for P802c is posted here:
http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2014/new-addresses-thaler-local-address-par-v01.pdf
The new 'CSD' is here:
http://www.ieee802.org/1/files/public/docs2014/new-addresses-thaler-local-address-csd-v01.pdf
These are for pre-circulation to meet the 30-day requirement for November plenary EC approval to forward to NesCom.
Cheers,
Glenn.
