The key characteristics of the Virtual Link Control (VLC) mechanisms are: - The ability to transit Layer 2 bridges in a single IEEE 802 Media Access Control (MAC) domain to allow remote device management - Extensibility to accommodate new protocols and new types of devices - The ability to simultaneously send messages to multiple VLC-aware stations using broadcast or multicast addressing The message format, as well as processing operations at the stations participating in the VLC protocol, are described. 606 $aEthernet (Local area network system) 606 $aNetwork performance (Telecommunication) 615 0$aEthernet (Local area network system) 615 0$aNetwork performance (Telecommunication) 676 $a004.68 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aDOCUMENT 912 $a9910488732803321 996 $a1904.2-2021 - IEEE Standard for Control and Management of Virtual Links in Ethernet-based Subscriber Access Networks$92582341 997 $aUNINA
