Emulation of TDM Circuit via MPLS/IP (PWE3/TDM)
PWE3 is a mechanism that emulates the essential attributes of a T1/E1 line over a packet-switched
network (PSN). This evolutionary technology allows you to migrate all packet networks from legacy
TDM networks, yet provides transport for legacy applications. PWE3/TDM emulates T1/E1
unstructured and structured lines, including NxDS0 circuits over a Multiprotocol Label Switching
(MPLS) infrastructure.
Configuration for provisioning and creating the PW is done through the existing xconnect interface.
A new command cem-group has been added to this feature to create a circuit emulation (CEM) channel
from one or more time slots of T1/E1.
The group-number keyword identifies the group number used for this channel.
•
•
Use the unframed keyword to specify that a single CEM channel is being created, including all time slots
with no framing structure defined. If time slots are defined, the PWE3 circuit is circuit emulation service
over packet-switched network (CESoPSN).
