Information on the various IEEE
standards groups can be found online. Though
the site isn’t in a friendly format, it’s a good
source of information. Published documents
on works in process are hard to access and
interpret, but it’s still worth a look. The Ethernet
Alliance was started in 2005 to help foster the development
of Ethernet and disseminate relevant
information. It’s a great source of news,
status, and other information. You should
read it daily. Brad Booth, EA chairman, was a
major contributor to this article. Finally, the
Metro Ethernet Forum is the ultimate goldmine source of
Carrier Ethernet information.
