Abstract :
After giving an overview of the evaluation of the converged networks, we explain why the IP/MPLS based packet switched networks is the best choice for the future converged networks. Then the architecture for pseudo wire emulation edge-to-edge (WE3) is described. The emulation of services over packet switched networks (PSNs) using IP or MPLS is discussed. And the architectural framework for pseudo wires (PWs) was presented, terminology, and specifies the various protocol elements and their functions are defined.
