Martini .. Kompella .. Atom .. VPLS

[Sherif Ismail]

Dear all

   I wonder what is the difference between  Martini .. Kompella .. Atom .. VPLS , can anyone assist plz ??

I know that Atom & VPLS are L2 Psuedowire but Atom allows only point-to-point L2 circuits however VPLS allows point-to-multipoint

but what about Martini & Kompella  ???

Many Thanks

Thanks Andreas

After some reading, I concluded below

AToM is cisco solution for L2VPNs point-to-point & it is based on martini draft

Kombella draft is multipoint, not standardized and Cisco do not support it

VPLS is standard multipoint open protocol

Correct ?

Thanks
