Full Description
Scope
This corrigendum to IEEE Std 802.1AS - 2011 corrects minor errors, bugs, ambiguities, and inconsistencies that have been identified by the 802.1 maintenance activity. It does not contain new material.
Purpose
This standard enables stations attached to bridged LANs to meet the respective jitter, wander, and time synchronization requirements for time-sensitive applications. This includes applications that involve multiple streams delivered to multiple endpoints. To facilitate the widespread use of bridged LANs for these applications, synchronization information is one of the components needed at each network element where time-sensitive application data are mapped or demapped or a time-sensitive function is performed. This standard leverages the work of the IEEE 1588 Working Group by developing the additional specifications needed to address these requirements.
