Introduction
This presentation outlines an overview of
Traditional Metro Ethernet networks in contrast
to MPLS based Metro Ethernet in a WAN
environment.
Attributes of Metro/Carrier
Ethernet
Carrier Grade Ethernet, or Carrier Ethernet, is a
ubiquitous, standardized service defined by five
attributes
1. Standardized services enable end users and
service providers to co-ordinate in order to
achieve data connectivity based on Carrier
Ethernet between multiple end user sites as
required by organizations around the globe.
Attributes of Metro/Carrier
Ethernet [Contd]
2. Scalability enables the data connectivity of any
number of multiple end user sites over any
distance, whether it be metro, regional, national or
intercontinental using Carrier Ethernet. Scalability
of bandwidth from 1Mbps to 10Gbps and beyond,
in granular increments
3. Reliability enables end users to rely on Carrier
Ethernet to run their business and mission critical

What is MPLS?
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a
mechanism in high-performance
telecommunications networks that directs data
from one network node to the next based on
short path labels rather than long network
addresses, avoiding complex lookups in a
routing table. The labels identify virtual links
(paths) between distant nodes rather than
endpoints. Source: Wikipedia.

connect to the core.
Summary
Ethernet Services are in a period of
tremendous growth with great revenue
potential for service providers
The Metro Ethernet Forum has standardised
