Overview: Many service providers are turning to Ethernet to meet the growing demand for high bandwidth access to virtual private network and Internet services and to take advantage of the growth opportunities the metropolitan Ethernet market presents. They require a network architecture that can offer resiliency, scalability, service delivery, performance and long-term investment protection. This paper compares the existing bridging model used to enable many of today's metro Ethernet services with multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), the leading candidate for large-scale metro network deployment, to help service providers make the appropriate technology choice for their next generation metro Ethernet network.
