Agreed from the viewpoint of functionality.
But see the context in your draft:
"...
Defined in both [802.1ag & Y.1731]:
- CCM/RDI: Connectivity Check, Remote Defect Indication
- LBM/LBR: Loopback Message, Loopback Reply
- LTM/LTR: Link trace Message, Link trace Reply
- VSM/VSR: Vendor-specific extensions Message/Reply
"
There are terms of 'CCM/RDI, LBM/LBR, LTM/LTR" both defined in 802.1ag
and Y.1731. That's fine. But there is no term like "VSM/VSR" defined
in 802.1ag, although there is a similar TLV in 802.1ag. I just guess
that the current context (see above) might confuse people sometimes.
Regards,
Peng
