Connection-Oriented Ethernet (COE) - FAQs What is COE ? An industry term that defines a point-to-point implementation of Carrier Ethernet What’s the difference between COE and Carrier Ethernet ? COE is a high performance implementation of Carrier Ethernet Are COE implementations based on industry standards ? Yes. Implementations utilize MEF, IEEE, IETF and ITU-T standards plus value added enhancements where standards are lacking Fujitsu implementation branded as “Ethernet Tag Switching” What networking technologies can be used to implement COE? COE can be implemented using Ethernet or MPLS technologies © 2010 Fujitsu Network Communications, Inc. All rights reserved. 3 Connection-Oriented Ethernet: A No-Nonsense Overview

Connectionless Ethernet (CLE) and Connection-Oriented Ethernet (COE) Different Implementations of Carrier Ethernet
8
Connectionless Ethernet (CLE) When most think of Ethernet, they think of Ethernet LANs Technically referred to as Connectionless Ethernet Single User per Ethernet Interface Network is inside a building CLE is also used in Carrier Networks Subscriber sites connect to an Ethernet UNI Multiple Users per Ethernet Interface Network is across a wide area MP2MP EVC in Carrier Network UNI LAN © 2010 Fujitsu Network Communications, Inc.

Connectionless Ethernet limiting factors in Carrier Ethernet networks Non-Deterministic QoS and Traffic Patterns Traffic path highly variable due to spanning tree topology changes Creates variable QoS performance (Delay, Delay Variation, Loss) Difficult to troubleshoot variable traffic paths Inconsistent Bandwidth for Subscribers Ethernet MAC Address learning performed periodically through broadcasting of unknown address to all ports (called flooding) Flooding takes away from revenue-generating bandwidth Difficult to Guarantee Bandwidth (Traffic Engineering) Multiple ingress and egress points in the network Difficult to provide High Network Availability Spanning Tree variants cannot meet demanding service requirements CLE requires technology augmentation to make it “Carrier Grade” © 2010 Fujitsu Network Communications, Inc.
