WG10 Proposal:

61850-6 does not specify what a subnet is.Multiple ethernet PHYs can be on the same APServices must be consistent across PHYs in a single AP.2nd AP with serverAt is the conformant solution.CBL and HF: Create a tissue to clarify this discussion plus the issue 1337.Work has been done and there is a big discussion regarding the tissue. An agreement is needed first. Still open.2020-10-29: A tissue #1672 has been created as a future work. To be solved in Ed2.2. There is no clear solution that accomodate to Ed2.1 and we have to create new attributes and upgrading/downgrading rules to make it compatible if needed. A new service capability description need to be created. And Ed2.1 client will not be able to be configure in such configuration. You will need to update your client before if you want to use the new configuration. The review request has been prepared but it is not circulated yet.This issue represents a new use case not covered by IEC 61850-6, so the use case has to be created and addressed so no compatibility issue with previous editions as that is a new functionality

Estimated Completion:
It will be solved in IEC 61850-6 Ed2.2(2022)

Description

A device presents all ethernet ports as a single access point. SCTs unable to configure the device to communicate on multiple subnets due to having a single AP. The manufacturer of the device states IEC 61850-6 fails to clearly define what constitutes an AP and a subnet.
