Supporting Transport for IP Network

• E-LAN connections among routers
• Any logical IP topology, this is your choice
• The number of interfaces in each router is
  decided by the bandwidth required, not by the
  number of routers to be interconnected

Supporting TV Distribution Service
1. Multicast tree(s) is(are) established with QoS
guaranteed. No multicast traffic is sent over the
tree(s) at this point of time.
2. Subscribers (the STB actually) sends request
for a channel
3. Carrier Ethernet filters out the channels not
needed and only replicates and forwards the
requested channel to the subscribers
4. Video source protection and network protection
are set up automatically upon requirement

Supporting VoD Service
1. A Hub-and-Spoke E-LAN connection is
established between DSLAMs and VoD servers (may
be aggregated via Layer 3 switches or routers)

Supporting VoD Service
1. A Hub-and-Spoke E-LAN connection is
established between DSLAMs and VoD servers (may
be aggregated via Layer 3 switches or routers)
2. Subscribers (the STB actually) sends request
to RSM for a movie
3. RSM finds the best VoD server for that
subscriber and tells the VoD server to be ready
to talk to the subscriber
4. RSM tells the subscribers which VoD and
Command server he should use
5. The subscriber establishes RTP and RSTP
session with VoD and Command server respectively

Supporting VoIP Service
1. A E-LAN connection is established between WAN
routers to build an IP WAN
2. In each city, an E-LAN connection is
established between the DSLAMs and the IP PoP in
that city
3. Caller contacts the SIP Proxy server in order
to find the IP address of the called party
4. Caller establishes RTP session with the called
party through E-LAN connection
