Scalable Ethernet Using VLAN Stacking
Thanks to the recent standardisation of long-range, high-bandwidth Ethernet interfaces, Ethernet can now be used in metropolitan networks. It can be said that Ethernet now offers the same bandwidth and range as traditional WAN technologies. However, adapted interfaces alone do not turn Ethernet into a WAN technology. A carrier-class network...
