Abstract: Carrier Ethernet (CE ) is gradually stepping away from standardization and testing to deployment and application in live networks. Although great improvement has been made in the reliability of various CE technologies, there is need for improvement in their Quality of Service (QoS ), Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM ), especially the multi-vendor interoperability. The deployment of CE should be service-oriented, and the factors, such as maturity of related technologies and standards, deployment costs, and the complexity of network reconstruction as well as the interoperability with other vendors, should be taken into full consideration to flexibly select appropriate networking technology for different application scenarios according to technical features.
