What is an Ethernet business service?
Any “network” service that bills for “Ethernet” access or EVCs
Commercial customers prefer Ethernet “plug and play”
Financial benefits (CAPEX/OPEX savings)
ONE protocol, ONE network Dynamic bandwidth allocation BW re-use, with oversubscription
Simplifies wholesale & Access
Peering, Interconnect, Access reach Bundles delivery of many services

Marketing MEF Services
Embracing Ethernet services increases competitive position:
Simplified sales engagement process
Sign the contract quickly on new high BW sales
Ask the customer three simple questions
What sites would you like on the E-LAN?
How much Bandwidth would you like to purchase at each site? What QOS VLAN priorities per EVC application?
Capture growing wholesale revenue
RFPs are asking for MEF compliant circuits

Ethernet OAM Improves Service SLAs
Ethernet OAM has increased reliability in Ethernet offerings
By providing the tools necessary to deliver Ethernet service reliably
Ethernet OAM reduces truck rolls (Eliminating $200-$400 cost per event)
Ethernet OAM combines
Low CAPEX of Ethernet equipment Low OPEX of TDM equipment
Simplifies Wholesale
Carriers prefer Ethernet peering Simplified virtual network expansion Carriers leverage Access providers Enhanced SLA agreements
Legacy Services Carrier Ethernet Best Effort Ethernet OPEX CAPEX
OAM Drives Ethernet Wholesale Access
Enables Carrier visibility
across
access provider networks
This allows selling of SLA’s bundled with Ethernet circuits
Ethernet OAM reduces SLA complexities in multi-carrier networks MEF driving this market (MEF-17)

Metro Ethernet Ring Protection
Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) protocol
ITU-T G.8032 ratified ERPS in July 2008
Removed RSTP (spanning tree protocol) requirements on Ethernet Ring Transport
ERPS creates SONET/SDH reliability on Ethernet rings
50 milli-second target recovery in ring configurations
MEF Service-OAM uses ERPS for OAM notifications
Packet Timing Protocols (PTP & 1588v2) work nicely with ERPS
