Virtual Private Wire Service Support in Ethernet VPN

Metadata

Publisher: IETF
Doc Type: Standard
Pages: 17
Abstract: This document describes how Ethernet VPN (EVPN) can be used to support the Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) in MPLS/IP networks. EVPN accomplishes the following for VPWS: provides Single-Active as well as All-Active multihoming with flow-based load-balancing, eliminates the need for Pseudowire (PW) signaling, and provides fast protection convergence upon node or link failure.
