    First setup to enable links establishment including services flow. Bridge Architecture The EtherHaul incorporates a fully functional integrated Provider Bridge (IEEE 802.1ad). Provider Bridge, commonly known as Q in Q, extends the IEEE 802.1Q standard by providing for a second stack of VLANs in a bridged network. The general purpose of Provider Bridge is to enable frames from multiple customers to be forwarded (or tunneled) through another topology (provider network) using Service VLANs (S -VLAN).
  • Page 61: Figure 8-1 Etherhaul Bridge Architecture

    EtherHaul Operation, Administration and Maintenance Manual The implementation of Provider Bridge is a network of up to seven virtual bridges connected in a “cross-like” fashion. Each component acts as a virtual bridge. A component can have both external and internal ports. An external port name is identical to its interface name.

    EtherHaul Operation, Administration and Maintenance Manual Scheduling Scheduler Mode options:  Strict Priority – Lower priority packets are served only if all higher priority queues are empty. This is the default scheduler mode.  Weighted Fair Queuing (WFQ) – Weights can be assigned to the radio queues, assuring fairness between the queues.

Instead of pausing all traffic on a link as in IEEE 802.3x Ethernet PAUSE (flow control), PFC allows you selectively pause traffic according to its class.
