a) Conform to the operation of the MRP Applicant, Registrar, LeaveAll, and Periodic Transmission state machines, as defined in 10.7.7, 10.7.8, 10.7.9, and 10.7.10, as required for one or the other of the following variants of the MRP Participant, as defined in 10.6 and 10.7:
1) The Full Participant.
2) The Full Participant, point-to-point subset.
b) Exchange MRPDUs as required by those state machines, formatted in accordance with the generic PDU format described in 10.8, and able to carry application-specific information as defined in 10.12, using the group MAC addresses reserved for use by MRP applications, as defined in Table 10-1.
c) Implement the MMRP Application component as defined in 10.12.
d) Propagate registration information in accordance with the operation of MAP for the Base Spanning Tree Context, as specified in 10.3.1.
e) Forward, filter or discard MAC frames carrying any MRP Application address as the destination MAC Address in accordance with the requirements of 8.13.6. Insert new subclause 5.4.2, as follows: 5.4.2 Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol (MVRP) requirements A VLAN-aware Bridge implementation in conformance to the provisions of this standard for the support of MVRP shall a) Conform to the operation of the MRP Applicant, Registrar, LeaveAll, and Periodic Transmission state machines, as defined in 10.7.7, 10.7.8, 10.7.9, and 10.7.10, as required for one or the other of the following variants of the MRP Participant, as defined in 10.6 and 10.7:
1) The Full Participant.
2) The Full Participant, point-to-point subset.
b) Exchange MRPDUs as required by those state machines, formatted in accordance with the generic PDU format described in 10.8, and able to carry application-specific information as defined in 11.2, using the group MAC addresses reserved for use by MRP applications, as defined in Table 10-1.
c) Implement the MVRP Application component as defined in 11.2.
d) Propagate registration information 1) In an SST bridge, in accordance with the operation of MAP for the Base Spanning Tree Context, as specified in 10.3 and 10.3.1; or
2) in an MST bridge, in accordance with the operation of MAP for multiple Spanning Tree contexts as specified in 11.2.3.1.2 of this standard.
e) Forward, filter or discard MAC frames carrying any MRP Application address as the destination MAC Address in accordance with the requirements of 8.13.6.
f) If a VID Translation Table (6.7) is in use for a Bridge Port, translate VIDs in MVRPDUs as specified in 11.2.4. Renumber existing subclause 5.9 as 5.10. Insert the following as new subclauses 5.9, 5.9.1, and 5.9.2, following subclause 5.8, as follows: 5.9 End station requirements for MMRP and MVRP This subclause defines the conformance requirements for end station implementations claiming conformance to MVRP and MMRP. Although this standard is principally concerned with defining the requirements for VLAN-aware Bridges, the conformance requirements for end station implementations of MVRP and MMRP are included in order to give guidance to such implementations. The PICS Proforma defined in Annex I is concerned with conformance claims with respect to end station implementations.
