The IEEE 802.3 Working Group develops standards for Ethernet. 802.1 develops networking best practices. 802.11 handles WiFi. Their WG web pages are ugly.
Ones worth knowing include:
| Standard | Year | Common name | Topic |
|---|---|---|---|
| 802.1d | 1990, 1998, 2004 | Bridges | Bridging and spanning trees 802.1d-2004 incorporates 802.1w |
| 802.1q | 1998, 2003, 2014, 2018 | VLANs | Virtual LANs 802.1q-2014 incorporates 802.1aq |
| 802.1w | 2001 | RSTP | Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol |
| 802.1aq | 2012 | SPB | Shortest path bridging |
| 802.16 | 2001 | WirelessMAN/WiMAX | Fixed Broadband Wireless Access (10--66GHz) |
| 802.3ad | 2000 | Link aggregation | L2 port trunking |
| 802.3ax | 2008 | Link aggregation | Became 802.1ax |
| 802.3by | 2016 | 2.5GBASE-T and 5GBASE-T | 2.5/5 Gigabit Ethernet over Cat-5/Cat-6 twisted pair |
