Business Case for Carrier Ethernet Services
Overview Carrier Ethernet services built on the Ethernet Line (E-Line) and Ethernet LAN (E-LAN) service types defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) provide the foundation for service revenue growth. They support a broad range of value-added services that can be sold at higher price points. When combined with MPLS technologies, Layer 3 MPLS VPN-based services support additional service offerings and help reduce Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), directly addressing service providers' profitability concerns. This paper describes the architectures and Cisco products used to deploy a Carrier Ethernet/MPLS network on a national or international scale, and present a case study that demonstrates the attractive cash flow that can be generated by such a project.
