This Presentation
Purpose
This presentation is intended as an introduction and companion
to both the MEF 3 and MEF 8 Specifications
These are the two principal specifications relating to services
that carry Circuit Emulation/TM traffic across Carrier Ethernet
Audience
It is intended for Product Marketing, Engineering staff of member
companies, for members of other standards bodies, Enterprise
networking staff, and service providers who
Would like a quick overview of the specifications
Plan to read the specifications in detail
Other Documents
Presentations of the other specifications and an overview of all
specifications is available on the MEF web site
Other materials such as white papers and case studies are also
available

draft-ietf-pwe3-tdmoip-03.txt
Very similar to MEF8, but for IP and MPLS networks
rather than Metro Ethernet
As with Y.1413, payload and encapsulation formats
are identical
Equipment supporting Y.1413 should also be capable
of supporting these IETF drafts
