NEED FOR SPB
•Modern Networks are critical assets to service the business function.
•Demanding voice and video networks requires sub-second failover.
•Carrier end offering like MPLS are complex and expensive.
•A key objective in the deployment of SPB technology across any metro
backbone is to provide a consistent enabling foundation to support current
and emerging needs of the network.
•In addition, future growth or additions to the network can be
accommodated in a seamless and non-disruptive manner.
•Simplicity
•Resiliency
•Security

MULTI-PROTOCOL LABEL SWITCHING (MPLS)
•MPLS directs data from one node to the next based on short path
labels rather than long network addresses, thus avoiding complex
lookups in a routing table and speeding traffic flows

KEY COMPONENTS
Backbone Edge Bridge (BEB)
Positioned at the edge of the PBB network
Learns and encapsulates (adds an 802.1ah header)
Interconnects the customer network space with PBB network space.

KEY COMPONENTS SPB Interface (Network Port)
A port BEB/BCB and connects to the backbone network.
Carries customer traffic encapsulated in 802.1ah frames associated with BVLANs
Access Port
This type of port is configured on the BEBs
Defines the point at which traffic from other provider networks or directly from
customer networks enters the PBBN.
