Overview

This chapter provides a summary of the Adva Optical Metro Ethernet device technology and the associated Management Information Bases (MIBs), which the Adva Optical Metro Ethernet Technology Pack is designed to support.

Note: The Adva Optical Metro Ethernet Technology Pack operates with Adva Optical Metro Ethernet devices running Version 3.4.1 of the operating system.

Summary of Device Technology

Metro Ethernet Services using Ethernet technology deliver cost-effective, high-speed connectivity for metropolitan-area network (MAN) and wide-area network (WAN) applications. This simple, easy-to-use technology appeals to customers who are already using Ethernet throughout their local-area networks (LANs). Metro Ethernet Services provide scalable bandwidth in flexible increments with simplified management and faster, lower-cost provisioning.

The Adva Optical Metro Ethernet Technology Pack is designed to work with the Adva Optical Metro Ethernet by reporting on the following categories of metrics:

LAN PortWAN PortESA Probes

Note: It is impractical and beyond the scope of this Technology Pack User’s Guide to provide exhaustive descriptions and explanations of the Adva Optical Metro Ethernet technology. See the documentation that ships with the previously listed devices and associated services for detailed information on the devices’ and services’ capabilities and features.
