Acknowledgement packet format


Hi,

I'm sending IEEE 802.3 frame format (LLC) from a bridge device for GVRP . The exact format is as follows:

DA | SA | L | DSAP | SSAP | Control | DATA | FCS

DA= group MAC address for GVRP, SA= Source MAC address, DSAP=0x42, SSAP=0x42, Control=0x03, DATA=GVRP PDU

Since, Control=0x03 (semi-reliable), should the receved bridge/device transmit acknowledgement after receiving the above packet? If yes, can any body please tell me the exact format of the acknowledged packet?

Regards and thanks,

-Hemant
