Name	Type	Description
Ieee8021rTagTpidHeader	class	This chunk represents an IEEE 802.1R tag header as defined by the section 7.8 Tag format of the IEEE Std 802.1CB-2017, IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks, Frame Replication and Elimination for Reliability.
Ieee8021rTagEpdHeader	class	This chunk represents an IEEE 802.1R tag header without the TPID field and with the following EtherType Protocol Discrimination (EPD) in the packet. The reason for this shifted representation is that it's often easier to look at a 802.1Q tag this way during processing. The typeOrLength field contains the EtherType as defined in the section 9.2 EtherTypes of the IEEE Std 802-2014, IEEE Standard for Local and Metropolitan Area Networks: Overview and Architecture.
