- Jon_Lowtek 6y agoThe type 8300 is not a registered standard and the patent includes a payload description: "mac, port-info, vlan-info" (yes some is redundant to the headers, that is explicitly mentioned) and that doesn't fit the data. Maybe "Huawei compatible" in the meaning of "can be understood by their devices, but not exactly as patented by them". If a ring with a second such device is formed, it might respond with a different poem.
- Randor 6y agoYeah, There are dozens of ether-types that are not standardized. There is also 0x8899 which is Realtek Remote Control Protocol (RRCP) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realtek_Remote_Control_Protocol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Realtek_Remote_Control_Protoco... There are many more but I don't remember them off the top of my head. I probably need more coffee.
