core of next-generation networks. Since it first dazzled the IT world 40
years ago with its ability to move data over local networks, Ethernet
has dramatically evolved in both form and function. And now, Carrier
Ethernet, flexing its multi-gigabit muscle, is rapidly emerging as the
undisputed technology of choice. As engaging as it is comprehensive,
this volume—
- Examines the differences between the so-called flavors of Ethernet
- Provides refreshers on virtual LANs (VLANs), virtual private
networks (VPNs), and Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS)
- Details Carrier advantages over other modalities with regard to
network performance
- Delves into Service Level Agreements, including ways to obtain a
quality of service for the movement of voice and real-time video, as
well as the creation of VLANs to facilitate the movement of data
- Describes various services that can be enabled over an Ethernet
infrastructure All You Need to Know about this Carrier-Class System
Ensuring seamless migration to Carrier Ethernet from existing
technologies, as well as integration with emerging services, this text
provides readers with the expert guidance needed to make full use of
Ethernet technology, both now and into the future.
