ATM to Ethernet Migration Plan, Example, BBP

[jeffrey.girard]

Im beginning to do reseach on a proposal to migrate from an ATM WAN infrastructure to Ethernet.  I searched CCO but did not get any hits that appeared useable.  Looking for any thoughts, ideas, comments, plans, examples, best business practices, etc.

Hello Jeffrey,

from a customer perspective you should consider EoMPLS or VPLS layer 2 services, but also MPLS L3 VPN services if all you need is to interconnect multiple sites.

A look at current recommended designs is useful:
