Lan functionality at your fingertips
Enjoy all the advantages of LAN functionality on a truly global scale with speed and reliability of data transmission, complete IP routing control, simple scalability of bandwidth, maximum security, and high quality. With Ethernet LAN connectivity, the LAN/WAN boundary is also simplified. Although traffic is routed through a service provider network, every device directly communicates with the others, making it appear that all sites are on the same physical LAN. As many enterprises already have Ethernet networks, transitioning to our Ethernet LAN service is very cost effective. Maintenance and equipment are also inexpensive.
Multi-point to Multi-point Service
Typical customers include those who wish to replace a point-to-point network with VPN or those with existing any-to-any networks whose requirements for higher bandwidth have increased. They usually have multiple but not excessive numbers of sites and are willing to keep or take over routing themselves. Our carrier Ethernet service readily deploys high-bandwidth applications such as video streaming, remote backup and cloud computing, as well as Voice over IP, Internet access and email traffic.
Two Ethernet LAN service types
Our Ethernet LAN services help enterprises easily connect their widespread sites in a single, bridged domain over a managed network. Due to its flexibility, it is ideal for today’s rapidly changing business requirements because expansion and reduction of both connection and bandwidth is simple. We offer two types of E-LAN connectivity:
EP-LAN - port based service
The EP-LAN service variant provides a high degree of service frames transparency. The Service Frame’s header and payload are identical at all end user sites.
EVP-LAN - VLAN base service (802.1Q)
The EVP-LAN service variant provides limited service-frame transparency. It allows service multiplexing at the end user sites (UNIs). As a Layer 2 service, customers can continue to take care of routing management. Plus, during network modernization – which is crucial to prepare the infrastructure for future technologies – Ethernet LAN supports legacy protocols.
