Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the Carrier Ethernet technology with specific focus on resilience. In particular, we show how multicast traffic, which is essential for IPTV can be protected. We detail the background for resilience mechanisms and their control and we present Carrier Ethernet resilience methods for linear and ring networks. By simulation we show that the availability of a multicast connection can be significantly increased by applying protection methods.
