IEEE 802

The IEEE 802 is a project of the IEEE, which began in February 1980, hence the name 802, and deals with standards in the field of local area networks ( LAN). The project defines network standards laid on layers 1 and 2 of the OSI layer model. The data link layer in the areas of LLC ( Logical Link Control ) and MAC ( Media Access Control) is divided. The working groups of the IEEE 802 but also give evidence of a meaningful integration of the systems into a general context (network management, internetworking, ISO -interaction ).

Within the 802- project, various working groups have been formed that deal on demand with new aspects.

  • 802.1 - High Level Interface ( Internetworking ) 802.1D - Spanning Tree Protocol
  • 802.1p - Traffic Class Expediting and Dynamic Multicast Filtering (published in 802.1D - 1998)
  • 802.1aq - Shortest Path Bridging ( SPB )
  • 802.1s - Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol
  • 802.1w - Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
  • 802.1X - Port Based Network Access Control
