Abstract

An Ethernet Pseudowire (PW) is used to carry Ethernet/802.1ah frames over an MPLS network. This enables service providers to offer "emulated" Ethernet services over existing MPLS networks. This document specifies the encapsulation of 802.1ah Ethernet Frames within a pseudo wire. It also specifies the procedures for using a PW to provide a "point-to-point Ethernet" service.
