Metro Ethernet Services in Numbers
• Metro Ethernet services will
replace legacy services
• Worldwide metro Ethernet
services revenue will reach $26B
in 2006
• Asia will be the leading region with
50-60% of all revenues, followed
by Europe and then North
America.

Approach to Technical Standards
Build on existing standards work from other
industry bodies – MEF only fills the technical gaps
for Metro Ethernet Services and Transport

MEF Priorities and Scope
• The primary priorities of the MEF are to define:
a. Ethernet Services for metro transport networks
Such services shall be delivered over native Ethernet-based Metro
networks and could also be supported by other transport
technologies.
b. Carrier-class Ethernet-based metro transport technologies
by specifying architecture, protocols and management for
Ethernet-based metro transport networks
• The secondary priorities of the MEF are (when deemed
necessary) to define:
a. Work to be done by other organizations on other transport
technologies (liaison activity)
b. Non-Ethernet interfaces, if not defined by other organizations.
