LAYER 2 AND LAYER 3 VPN fEATuRESLayer 2 and Layer 3 VPNs are commonly deployed forthe following services:

• Wireless backhaul for Radio Access Networks (RANs)

• Ethernet services

• Migration of legacy services over IP/MPLS

• fTTx/DSL aggregation over IP/MPLS

Metaswitch offers a fully integrated control plane or individual components to build scalable and resilient VPN networks.The common building blocks are Metaswitch’s MPLS and IP routing products, which include full support or the following IETf protocols:

• PWE3 – Pseudo Wire Emulation (aka Martini or VPWS) provides circuit emulation over an IP/MPLS network. This includes point-to-point Ethernet circuits, ATM/fR circuits and TDM services

• VPLS – Virtual Private LAN Segments provides multi-point Ethernet services where the whole network effectively emulates a VLAN switch

• 4364 – RfC 4364 VPNs provide scalable Layer 3 VPN services

LAYER 2 AND LAYER 3 VPN TOOLKIT

• Source Code - protocol source code with customization options

• High Availability Framework - off-the-shelf framework for fault tolerance and replication

• Confi guration Safe Store (DC-CSS) - optional package for offl ine maintenance of confi guration information

• Diagnostics - extensive tools for assisting development including problem reporting, IPS tracing, memory verifi cation, internal tracing, memory tracing, and internal checking

• L2 VPN Cookbook - detailed instructional guide on how to use DC-MPLS to develop L2 VPNs on switches and routers

• VPN Manager Integration Guide - provides details on using DC-MPLS to develop L3 VPNs on routers

• Documentation - written by engineers and maintained by professional documentation specialists.
