CID89: Backhaul definition as finally agreed: The portion of the access network between node of attachments and the access router.
CID73: resolution proposal as accepted:
Rephrase text in lines to: On the datapath indicated by R1 and R3, the NRM covers all Physical and Data Link layer functions providing an integrated model for backhaul connectivity combined with user-specific connectivity functions as facilitated through the IEEE bridging technologies.
Add footnote: In the telecommunication domain there is often differentiation between user plane functions and transport plane functions; The IEEE 802 access network reference model integrates both planes into a common model aligned to the layered networking capabilities of IEEE 802.1Q.
