Summary form only given. One class of solutions for meeting the needs of metropolitan networks is Gigabit Ethernet (1G and 10G), also called Optical Ethernet, networks. These networks consist of Layer 2/3 packet switches in a mesh topology, with Layer 2 being Gb or 10Gb Ethernet. The author examines the main capabilities and deficiencies of GbE technology, and provides a framework in which to address its potential.
