High Reliable Ethernet Technologies: Global Open Ethernet

Tags:
ethernet

Overview The authors propose a high reliable Ethernet technology: GOE (Global Open Ethernet) technology. The GOE technology is a cost-effective and scalable solution for next generation Ethernet VPNs (Virtual Private Networks) that can satisfy simultaneously not only the requirement of high reliability, but also those of flexible network topology, low equipment cost, and low operational cost. This paper focuses on the requirement of high reliability for Ethernets.

Devil's Advocate: Ethernet power

Adding power distribution to Ethernet networks promises lots of improvements, says Martin Brampton. Without power over Ethernet IP phones could not do that. That is the standard for providing electrical power through ordinary Ethernet cabling.

IP over everything?

SDH provides the reliability of circuit-switched pathways and resiliency should there be a fault but it is overly complex and not nearly as flexible as a native IP architecture when it comes to supporting Ethernet services, for example.

Internet 'next generation' up and running

The virtual IPv6 backbone stretches from New Hampshire to California and will be permanent, so that equipment makers, software vendors, service providers and anyone else who would like to test IPv6 interoperability in a live network can do so.

How CIOs mitigate VoIP's risks

The market researcher predicts carriers will spend $4.8bn on next-generation voice equipment by 2007, up from $1.2bn in 2003. This in my opinion gives you an opportunity to increase overall reliability, and is a strategy that we are already deploying.

Cisco buys security start-up

The software is designed to be aware of network topology. As a result, it can trace attacks through the network and send out new security rules on the fly to firewalls, Ethernet switches or IP routers to kill the attack.

Next-gen wi-fi to serve up IPTV?

Wi-fi provides a good alternative to Ethernet cabling but until recently the technology has not provided enough capacity or reliability to be used for anything more than delivering data services. But most homes today aren't equipped with Ethernet...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
