Benefits
• Switches any combination of packets
and circuits in their native formats
using a single platform
• Fully scales packet transport, smoothly
progressing from all-circuit to all-
packet, allowing service providers
to transform networks to packet
transport
• Efficiently aggregates and grooms
metro and long-haul transport
• Simplifies network planning using
ROADM and WDM
• Reduces total cost of ownership and
simplifies operations through cross-
layer network management and
unified control plane
• Supports a broad range of applica-
tions, such as triple play services,
business Ethernet and mobility
backhaul
Service level agreement (SLA)
management
• Traffic profiles
¬ Bandwidth guaranteed
¬ Regulated: minimum band-
width guaranteed plus burst
¬ Best effort
• Hitless traffic-profile modification
• Metering
¬ Single Rate Token Bucket:
RFC 2697
¬ Dual Rate Token Bucket:
RFC 2698
¬ ieTF and Metro ethernet Forum
(MeF) Metering, policing and
Marking
¬ Color-blind and color-aware,
based on ethernet priority bits
