	<title>Technical Specifications:  MEF 10.2 Ethernet Services Attributes Phase 2 (Oct 2009)</title>
	<description>This document describes Ethernet Service attributes. The Ethernet Services are modeled from the point of view of the Subscriber’s equipment referred to as the Customer Edge (CE) that is used to access the service. The basic elements of Ethernet Services are defined. In addition, a number of Service Attributes are defined that may be offered as part of an Ethernet Service including the definition of Service Level Specification. This document supersedes MEF 10.1.1, Ethernet Services Attributes Phase 1 [7].&lt;br /&gt; and
&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

At the end of this email are the simple instructions to add these videos to your own web site. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;MEF Global Interconnect Video Series&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Three new videos from the MEF describe the Global Interconnect Program. Every service provider and subscriber of Ethernet Services will benefit from the interviews and comments of Analysts, Service Providers and the Animations the Global Interconnection. What it is, why it is important and how it works are covered in this educational video series. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,110/"&gt;&lt;img alt="" height="75" src="http://www.metroethernetforum.org/images/GlobalInterconnect/video1thumb.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; float: left" width="91" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Video 1: Global Interconnect - &lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,110/"&gt;What It Is and Why It Matters&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Global Interconnect program and concepts are introduced in this video. It provides a comprehensive overview of the work being done by the MEF. Topics include: technical specifications, service certifications, business process descriptions and operational templates – all designed to make it easy for service providers to offer high bandwidth, quality assured Ethernet-based services, irrespective of their customers’ location. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,111/"&gt;&lt;img alt="" height="75" src="http://www.metroethernetforum.org/images/GlobalInterconnect/video2thumb.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; float: left" width="91" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Video 2: Global Interconnect - &lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,111/"&gt;Delivering Ethernet Services Worldwide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Service providers from around the world comment on issues and solutions to complex interconnection problems that confront them daily. They also discuss how MEF’s Global Interconnect Program provides a framework to assist with the smooth integration of services when they share subscribers across their networks. Participants include, Orange, Verizon, Virgin Media, Ancotel, Equinix, CENX, Infonetics and Vertical Systems among others.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,112/"&gt;&lt;img alt="" height="75" src="http://www.metroethernetforum.org/images/GlobalInterconnect/video3thumb.jpg" style="border-width: 0px; float: left" width="91" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Video 3: Global Interconnect - &lt;a href="http://www.ethernetacademy.net/index.php/component/option,com_hwdvideoshare/Itemid,141/task,viewvideo/video_id,112/"&gt;An Animated Overview of Ethernet Services&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Animations presented in this video demonstrate MEF mechanisms that enable service providers to match services at an External Network to Network Interface (ENNI). These mechanisms are critical to SLA creation. Concepts presented include: UNI, VLAN, SP-VLAN, EVC, CoS, EIR, CIR, E-LINE, E-LAN, SLA, ENNI, OAM, SOAM, ITU-Y.1731, IEEE 802.1ah, MEP, MIP, CCM and LTM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Add the MEF Global Interconnect Videos to Your Web Site!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The easiest method to add the videos to your web site, is to link a graphic on your web site which points to the MEF web page that displays the videos. &lt;a href="http://www.metroethernetforum.org/images/promo-kits/Global-Interconnect-Video-Promo-Graphics.zip"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; for the graphics, and then &lt;a href="http://metroethernetforum.org/page_loader.php?p_id=987"&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; for the URL to link to the graphic. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A more integrated approach is to click on one of the links above for anyone of the videos you'd like to watch and on the web page for that video, click on the button titled &amp;quot;&amp;lt; Embed&amp;gt;&amp;quot; .  &lt;a href="http://metroethernetforum.org/page_loader.php?p_id=987"&gt;Click here&lt;/a&gt; to see how we are using this same approach on the MEF web page.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Enjoy!

	<title>Cable industry adopting  Carrier Ethernet.</title>
	<description>Carrier-class Ethernet service for the cable industry is fast becoming a reality as the typical customer expands to include regional business and multi-site markets. It could even replace the traditional T-1 architecture.



Those were the upbeat findings of Metro Ethernet Forum President Nan Chen during Thursday's CTAM business services track session, "Plugged In: Ethernet's Role in Driving Business Services Market Share."&lt;br /&gt;



"Ethernet is uptaking to cable, mobile and global connectivity and is now becoming a reality," Chen said. "Cable has an opportunity to replace T-1s, and there are business opportunities, too. There is significant growth worldwide with $16 billion in equipment opportunities, and Ethernet is now the majority of edge routers. We want Ethernet services to be a plug in the wall."

	<title>Metro Ethernet Marches On</title>
	<description>Ethernet is evolving from old best-effort Ethernet (as found on LANs) to Carrier Ethernet (Ethernet as a service replacing SONET and picking up Frame Relay, ATM and Private Line customers) to Ethernet as a total ubiquitous transport (any media over Ethernet; fiber dominant in core, metro and access areas).&lt;br /&gt;
