Hi,
I would like to know if i can replace traditional ring infrastructutre (IE3000 switch with fiber connection in ring topology) with cisco PON solution.
My scenario is a MAN where broadcast traffic (comming from devices to ie3000 access switches) must be transfered to central monitoring unit (root of mst ring).
What are the superior benifits ( if there are) of PON over traditional mst (multiple spanning tree) ring ? is there simmilar link failure (redundancy) mechanism as mst ?
Please provide me with answer (or a link to a good reference)
Regards
