Description | An object that identifies the source_address
parameter of the last MPCPDUs passed to the MAC Control.
This value is updated on reception of a valid frame with
1) a destination Field equal to the reserved multicast
address for MAC Control as specified in [802.3], Annex
31A; 2) the lengthOrType field value equal to the reserved
Type for MAC Control as specified in [802.3], Annex
31A; 3) an MPCP subtype value equal to the subtype
reserved for MPCP as specified in [802.3ah], Annex 31A.
This object is applicable for an OLT and an ONU. At the
OLT, it has a distinct value for each virtual interface.
The value reflects the MAC address of the remote entity
and therefore the OLT holds a value for each LLID, which
is the MAC address of the ONU; the ONU has a single
value that is the OLT MAC address. |
