Layer 2 Services over MPLS Overview
Many Internet service providers offer multiple services such as Frame Relay,
Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Ethernet, High-Speed Data Link Control (HDLC),
and IP to their customers, but are consolidating to a single, packet-based, optical
network from several service-specific legacy layer 2 networks. Although legacy layer
2 network links are disappearing from the Internet service provider’s network, the
legacy layer 2 network links and services to customers must remain.
Layer 2 services over IP/MPLS enable service providers to emulate the legacy layer
2 network links and services over their IP/MPLS-based network. Layer 2 services
over MPLS are especially desirable because MPLS provides features such as traffic
engineering and fast reroute. These MPLS features can be used to emulate certain
layer 2 service characteristics. From the perspective of the customer edge (CE) devices,
all that exists is the layer 2 circuit, even though the circuit actually exists over the
service provider’s MPLS network.
The JUNOSe software currently support the following layer 2 services over MPLS:
