EtherNEWS Article: Service Mapping Read Article

Quickly create Ethernet Virtual Circuits (EVCs) for E-Line, E-LAN, and E-Tree services with EVC service mapping – advanced networking functionality built right into EtherNID ™ demarcation units designed for customer and cell sites. Ideal for operators with mixed-vendor, multi-technology networks, EVC service mapping transparently creates Ethernet LAN services and avoids interoperability issues that result in provisioning delays and costly network upgrades.


Create assured Ethernet Virtual Circuits end-to-end & establish SLA-grade services

Map services with advanced bandwidth policies that establish committed and excess throughput and burst rates (CIR, EIR, EBS, CBS), and enforce them with per-flow traffic control. Advanced shaping functionality accelerates access links and optimizes QoS. Traffic filtering protects VLANs and blocks unwanted traffic from flooding your network, while bandwidth policing eases congestion and protects core performance.

With the Fast-Thru ™ hardware architecture, EtherNID packet assurance demarcation units maintain EVCs at GbE wire speed without adding delay or jitter to critical, real-time traffic. Easily configured remotely, building EVCs is as simple as installing EtherNID units at the demarc-points and provisioning services from the web.


Intelligent, hardware-based service mapping and traffic filtering adds no delay to critical traffic

SLA-Meter ™ Service Assurance

Accedian Networks SLA-Meter combines three advanced ESAP test functions into a complete in-service SLA assessment tool. The PAA Performance Assurance Agent provides one-way jitter and delay measurement with an industry-leading microsecond resolution, while advanced per-SLA flow traffic statistics – stored directly on-board EtherNID and MetroNID demarcation units – provide usage information for trending and troubleshooting.

Industry unique in-service, automated RFC-2544 performance testing validates SLA-specified throughput and burst (CIR, EIR, CBS, EBS), frame loss and back-to-back transmission without affecting customer traffic. Altogether, it’s the only end-to-end, customer-transparent SLA-Meter available.


End-to-End SLA-Meter with performance assurance – no impact to customer traffic
