Malis and David Zelig}, title = {{SONET/SDH Circuit Emulation over Packet (CEP)}}, pagetotal = 34, year = 2002, month = jun, day = 17, abstract = {Generic requirements and framework for Pseudo Wire Emulation Edge-to- Edge (PWE3) have been described in {[}PWE3-REQ{]} and {[}PWE3-FW{]}. This draft provides encapsulation formats and semantics for connecting SONET/SDH edge networks through a packet network using IP or MPLS. This basic application of SONET/SDH interworking will allow service providers to take advantage of new technologies in the core in order to provide traditional SONET/SDH services.}, }
