Abstract:
   Traditionally, Ethernet MAC rates were constrained to match the rates
   of the Ethernet PHY(s).  OIF's implementation agreement [OIFMLG3] was
   the first step in allowing MAC rates to be different than the PHY
   rates.  OIF has recently approved another implementation agreement
   [OIFFLEXE1] which allows complete decoupling of the MAC data rates
   and the Ethernet PHY(s) that support them.  This includes support for
   (a) MAC rates which are greater than the rate of a single PHY
   (satisfied by bonding of multiple PHY(s)), (b) MAC rates rates which
   are less than the rate of a PHY (sub-rate), (c) support of multiple
   FlexE client signals carried over a single PHY, or over a collection
   of bonded PHY(s).  This draft catalogs the usecases that are
   encountered when these Flexible rate Ethernet client signals are
   transported over OTN networks.

Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
