  • Abstract
    A technique is proposed that allows achievement of logical point-to-multipoint paths in gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networks with access based on passive optical networks (PONs), guaranteeing upstream/downstream bandwidth and quality of service also in conditions of traffic congestion. Such a method is based on the combination of the virtual private LAN service (VPLS), implemented in the core network, and the VLAN tagging forwarding process used in the edge-PON segment.
