Jouni,
It is not clear what you mean by "common Ethernet Types" - is the implication that a single Ethertype is used?
IQ needs expansion - it is not a commonly used acronym.
I am not sure " The unified encapsulation format allows for future development also on other transport technologies than Ethernet." Is pertinent to this PAR.
Regards
Marek

Marek,
Trying to address your comment for the text in 5.4.Yes:
"This standard enables the transfer of IQ user-plane data, vendor specific data, and control and management (C&M) information channels across an Ethernet-based packet-switched network. The standard fosters interoperability among implementations by defining framing, the encapsulation of the information, and common Ethernet Types. The unified encapsulation format allows for future development also on other transport technologies than Ethernet."
