  • Abstract
    Ethernet has become a dominant technology and it is now a universal communication interface more than just an access technology. Its low cost, high data rates, low complexity and simple maintenance offer Network Providers a good opportunity for using Ethernet data networks at very large scale replacing the existing ATM/SONET or IP networking.
