T. Takeda, Hisashi Kojima, I. Inoue · 2005
This paper proposes detailed architectures of L1 VPN (layer 1 virtual private network). In previous works, we have proposed the concept of L1 VPN, and mechanisms for the distributed architecture. This paper evaluates various types of L1 VPN architectures, then proposes details of the hybrid architecture that is suitable for the initial L1 VPN service.
