Abstract :
In this work, we experimentally demonstrate how to achieve logic point-to-multipoint paths in Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) networks with access based on Passive Optical Networks (PON), guaranteeing upstream/downstream bandwidth and quality of service also in condition of traffic congestion. Such a method is based on the combination of the Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) forwarding process in the metro-core network and of the VLAN tagging one in the Edge-PON segment.
