Embodiment Construction
[0030] The description begins with an introduction to the standards for Operations, Administration and Manipulation (OAM) in Ethernet networks. Then, based on the standardized mechanism IEEE 802.lag, an example embodiment for automatic and scalable topological location discovery of new nodes / network devices joining an existing Ethernet network is presented. Throughout the description, the same reference numerals are used to identify corresponding elements.
[0031] To adapt Ethernet technology in a carrier-class service environment, multiple standards have been developed and are being developed to provide advanced OAM capabilities (also known as Ethernet Connectivity and Fault Management or Ethernet Net CFM). Since an end-to-end service network environment typically consists of a patchwork of various branch networks (for example, metro access and core networks using multiple technologies) that may belong to different organizations, network operators, and service providers, Et...
