The Challenges?

Business

Requiring Carrier Ethernet Networks to Evolve

Increasing Complexity

Rising Costs

Limited Flexibility

How can I cost economically offer

business, residential, mobile services over

a converged infrastructure

How do I cost efficiently scale to meet current and future network demands

How can I simplify the network while

improving network economics?

Metro (Access/Agg)

Challenges?

Packet Vs. TDM Transport

TDM transport of packets is no longer economically

viable, lacks statistical multiplexing which makes it very

expensive

Full transformation to NGN needs

to occur from core to customer

Long term vision is critical, this will be the network for the

next decade

What is the most effective

technology choice that will:

–Minimize CapEx and OpEx?

–Provide carrier class service delivery?

–Maximize service agility?

Carriers want the deterministic attributes of transport networks with the flexibility of the internet

Cisco focuses on IP/MPLS for the Carrier Ethernet Transport architecture.

Cisco targets MPLS-TP for the POTS and Access Networks while supporting already Ethernet Bridged Access

Cisco also addresses MPLS to the access with Unified MPLS

L2 – Transport Technology Review

• Two technologies for L2 transport over MPLS:

– Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS)

• Used for L2 point-to-point link over MPLS cloud

• No MAC learning involved

– Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS)

• Used for multipoint L2 connections

• Collection of pseudowires tied together by a Virtual Forwarding Interface (VFI)

• MAC addresses learned on VFI

• Traffic forwarding based on destination MAC addresses

• H-VPLS, an extension of VPLS

11

MPLS

EoMPLS Technology Review

• MPLS in the aggregation network and core

• Targeted LDP session between PEs to exchange VC label

• Tunnel label is used to forward packet from PE to P to PE

• VC label is used to identify L2VPN circuit

• Attachment Circuit (AC) can be port-based or VLAN-based (or Ethernet Flow Point based, see later)

VPLS Technology Review

• Virtual Circuit (Pseudowire)—EoMPLS tunnel between PEs using a full mesh

• Virtual Forwarding Instance (VFI)—A virtual L2 bridge instance that connects ACs to VCs (PWs);

VFI=VLAN=broadcast domain

• Enhanced with BGP based Autodiscovery (RFC607)

• Scalability issues almost solved via H-VPLS and state-of-the-art NPU technology (2M MAC address/chip)

What is MPLS-TP? • MPLS-TP – MPLS Transport Profile

– Subset and extension of current MPLS functions – Connection-oriented transport based on MPLS protocols combined with transport style OAM and protection

mechanisms

Data Plane

– Bidirectional P2P and P2MP LSPs

• No LSP merging

• PHP optional

– Standard PW (SS-PW, MS-PW)

Control Plane

– GMPLS control plane option

– PW control plane option

OAM

– In-band OAM channel (GACH)

– Connectivity Check (CC): proactive (BFD)

– Connectivity Verification (CV): reactive (BFD)

– Alarm Suppression and Fault Indication with AIS (new tool), RDI

(BFD), and Client Fault Indication (CFI)

– Performance monitoring, proactive and reactive (new tools)

Resiliency

– Sub-50ms protection switch over

– 1:1, 1+1, 1:N path protection

Two Routing

Adjacency

CE dual homing to two PE routers. It has 2

separated L3 interface, and run separated

IGP/BGP session with two PE routers

Traffic load balance over the two ECMP

paths

When link or node failure, IGP/BGP

adjacency goes down. Protocol re-converge.

BGP PIC edge feature is used for fast BGP

convergence

No state sync between two PE routers

Single Routing

Adjacency

CE dual homing to one virtual PE. Single

routing adjacency over the link bundle

Traffic load balance over the link bundle

When link or node failure, bundle remains

up, so upper layer protocol is even not aware

super fast convergence, and simple

State sync naturally

done on the Host chassis
