Abstract

Service Providers may offer a 'Layer 2 VPN Service' over an IP backbone by provisioning point-to-point 'virtual circuits' that run through IP tunnels. This document discusses the signaling, encapsulation, and configuration issues that arise. Its purpose is to provide an architecture which allows different kinds of point-to- point virtual circuits to be provided through different kinds of IP tunnels.
