Erik, The informative annexes explain how to use 802.1Q bridges to implement Pfivate VLANs. The capabilities that allow that are covered in the normative body of IEEE Std 802.1Q.
The liaison includes suggested text for the ID describing details of configuring 802.1Q bridges to accomplish that including references to normative parts of 802.1Q.
