Security over Metro Ethernet

[gchevalley]

I am new to Metro Ethernet and was wondering how secure it is and what is best practice when configuring links across it?

Hi,

It is secure in the sense user data is put in different VLAN, is not because provider can see the user data if they want. So, if you trust the provider, then it is secure. From the customer I have worked with, half of them encrypt the data.

HTH,
