Standards Development Working Group

WG802.1 - Higher Layer LAN Protocols Working Group

The IEEE 802.1 Working Group is chartered to concern itself with and develop standards and recommended practices in the following areas: 802 LAN/MAN architecture, internetworking among 802 LANs, MANs and other wide area networks, 802 Security, 802 overall network management, and protocol layers above the MAC & LLC layers. The 802.1 working group has four active task groups: Interworking, Security, Audio/Video Bridging and Data Center Bridging.
