Operator Network Provisioning Solution

Currently, the major concern of telecom service providers is to provide a very high speed connection to their customers. While the core network of operators is mainly based on IP/MPLS, it was imperative that the access network be as efficient, guaranteeing very high speed to end users. The Metropolitan Ethernet or Metro-Ethernet is a high-speed telecommunications network based on the Ethernet standard covering a large area. This technology has been developing since 2003, and is a suitable solution for access to the operator's network.It is in this context that this project is located, with the objective of proposing a monitoring solution to ensure high availability of the Metro Ethernet local loop of Tunisie Telecom. The proposed solution is based on the use of virtual router to take over the failed node, allowing the availability of the loop.Keywords: Metro-Ethernet, IP/MPLS, supervision, availability, virtual router
