Title : Carrying PWE3 Pseudo Wires over Provider Backbone Transport
Author(s) : D. Allan, et al.
Filename : draft-allan-pw-o-pbt-03.txt
Pages : 8

Provider Backbone Transport (PBT, known as well as PBB-TE and
progressed in IEEE as 802.1Qay [802.1Qay]) provides a mechanism
where native Ethernet point-to-point tunnels can be configured or
signaled across a provider-based Ethernet network [FEDYK]. PWE3
architecture defines a mechanism, called pseudowires, that emulates
the essential attributes of a layer-2 and layer-1 service over a
Packet Switched Network (PSN). This draft describes the architecture
and procedures where Pseudowires are carried across PBT tunnels. In
this proposal PBT tunnels are used as the PSN.

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
