5G Wireless Wireline Convergence User Plane Encapsulation (5WE)
RFC 8822

Received changes through RFC Editor sync (created alias RFC 8822, changed abstract to 'As part of providing wireline access to the 5G Core (5GC), deployed wireline networks carry user data between 5G residential gateways and the 5G Access Gateway Function (AGF).  The encapsulation method specified in this document supports the multiplexing of traffic for multiple PDU sessions within a VLAN-delineated access circuit, permits legacy equipment in the data path to inspect certain packet fields, carries 5G QoS information associated with the packet data, and provides efficient encoding.  It achieves this by specific points of similarity with the Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) data packet encapsulation (RFC 2516).', changed standardization level to Informational, changed state to RFC, added RFC published event at 2021-04-17, changed IESG state to RFC Published)
