Guidelines:

<prefix-name> ::= <ieee-working-group> <dash> <unique-name>

<dash> ::= –
<letter> ::= [a-z A-Z 0-9 -]

<ieee-working-group> ::= <ieee802-working-group> | <ieee1588-working-group>| <ieee1914-working-group> | <ieee1906-working-group>

<ieee802-working-group> ::= ‘ieee802’ | <ieee802-dot1-specific> | <ieee802-dot3-specific> | <ieee802-dot11-specific>

<no-working-group> ::= NULL

<ieee802-dot1-specific> ::= dot1 <dot1-baseSpec>
<ieee802-dot1-baseSpec> ::= NULL | <letter> {<letter>}

<ieee802-dot3-specific> ::= eth| dot3

<ieee802-dot11-specific> ::= dot11

<unique-name> ::= <letter> {<letter>}

Examples:

802.1 example: prefix for: ieee802-dot1q-bridge.yang
<ieee802-dot1-specific> == dot1
<ieee802-dot1-baseSpec> == q
<unique-name> == bridge
prefix = “dot1q-bridge”

802.3 example: prefix for: ieee802-ethernet-interface-half-duplex.yang
<ieee802-dot3-specific> == eth
<unique-name> == half-duplex
prefix = “eth-half-duplex”

Name shortening:

Apply well-known abbreviations/acronyms to the prefix to shorten.
