Overview

CONNECTION ORIENTED ETHERNET

Connection Oriented Ethernet introduces a simplified, cost effective and deterministic approach to Ethernet deployment. It delivers Ethernet networks SONET/SDH-like control by incorporating deterministic routing, end-to-end traffic engineering and management plus advanced OAM (operations, administration and maintenance) functions. Connection Oriented Ethernet can be implemented through a variety of technologies including IP/MPLS, PBB-TE and T-MPLS.
