Managing Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC) Services

This chapter describes Ethernet Virtual Circuit (EVC) services and how it is used to provision the 
following VPN technologies: Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (L2VPN) (point-to-point) 
technology, with access technologies such as ATM, Frame Relay, and Ethernet (Carrier Ethernet); 
Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) (point-to-multipoint) technology, with access technology 
Ethernet (Carrier Ethernet) on Layer 2 and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) cores as well as 
Hybrid Virtual Private LAN Services (H-VPLS).

Managing RAN Backhaul Services

This part of the user guide also provides information on setting up radio access network (RAN) 
backhaul transport services using ATM and TDM-CEM technologies. RAN backhaul extends the IP 
network from the core to the edge by preparing all RAN backhaul traffic for transport over 
pseudowires or carrier-metro Ethernet.

Managing MPLS VPN Services

This part of the user guide explains the tasks and step-by-step procedures you need to perform to set 
up the Layer 3 VPN network infrastructure in Prime Provisioning and deploy the Layer 3 VPN 
service on the network. 

Managing MPLS Transport Profile Services

This part of the user guide provides information for MPLS Transport Profile (TP) technologies, 
MPLS-TP is the technology that enables MPLS to be deployed in a transport network and operated 
in a similar manner to existing transport technologies. 

Managing MPLS Traffic Engineering Services

This part of the user guide explains how to use Traffic Engineering Management (TEM), which is a 
tool for managing MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE) primary and backup tunnels for the purpose of 
offering Service Level Agreement (SLA) guarantees for your network traffic.

This programmer guide provides information about the Prime Provisioning API components and 
processes that allow you to use operations support system (OSS) client programs to connect to the 
Prime Provisioning system.
