Ethernet security

Hello,

Is someone could give please the details of the "SEC Tag" field in a

802.3 MAC frame. This prefix is just after the source address. Have you also the details of the ICV postfix?

These indications are not in the free 802.3-2002, I suppose that it is in the 2005 version, with paiement.

Regards, Michelot

Their use is defined in IEEE 802.1AE which is not yet published.

Hello Anoop,

Thanks, the first time I am in advance.

Do you know the EtherType that will point on fields described in future IEEE 802.1AE?

I think it's 0x88E5. Not sure, though, as these things can change until the spec is actually published.

Perhaps the good value. It seems to be reserved for the ae drafts:
