2. The IEEE 802 JTC1 SC focused on executing the PSDO process in Vancouver in Jan 2017
IEEE 802 JTC1 SC achievements in Atlanta in Jan 2017
Processed PSDO submissions
Noted status of 45 standards in the PSDO pipeline
It is expected that multiple 60-day and FDIS comment responses will be proposed for approval at the EC meeting by WG & WG
The main issue addressed in these responses is the allegation by China NB that 802.1X based security is flawed
Reviewed activities at SC6 meeting in Tunisia
Attendance was very low
Most interesting activity was the proposal to create a Security ad hoc
The Security ad hoc was justified by China NB on the basis that an SC6 forum is required to discuss security matters
The SC agreed on a liaison statement to SC6 suggesting an alternative mechanism to discuss the allegation that 802.1X based security is flawed
