The Search for the Right Packet Transport Technology: MPLS or PBB-TE (PBT)?
Overview This paper goes beyond the marketing hype and look closely at the underlying concepts behind MPLS and PBB-TE. The author does this in order to evaluate if there are any fundamental differences between the control or data plane of the two technologies, which would give either of them a significant cost/complexity advantage over the other. To further help providers select the best packet transport technology, the paper identifies key next generation packet transport requirements, and uses these as a benchmark to evaluate PBB-TE and MPLS.
