Configuring Pseudowire

Cisco Pseudowire Emulation Edge-to-Edge (PWE3) allows you to transport traffic using traditional services such as E1/T1 over a packet-based backhaul technology such as MPLS or IP. A pseudowire (PW) consists of a connection between two provider edge (PE) devices that connects two attachment circuits (ACs), such as ATM VPIs/VCIs or E1/T1 links.
