Layer 3 MAN
Device
Internet
access
service
The packets
of the
Internet
access
service do not
carry a
VLAN tag.
A service
flow is
created
between a
cable modem
(CM) and a
distributed
cable modem
termination
system (D-
CMTS).
CM management
packets and high-
speed Internet
(HSI) packets carry
the same VLAN
tag.
l
When an optical
line terminal
(OLT) forwards
services at
Layer 2, the
OLT
transparently
transmits
VLAN tags to a
metropolitan
area network
(MAN) device.
l
When an OLT
forwards
services at
Layer 3, the
OLT adds a
unique VLAN
tag to the
packets of a
service type.
l
When an OLT
forwards
services at
Layer 2, a Layer
3 MAN device
forwards the
services at
Layer 3 and adds
a unique VLAN
tag to the
packets of a
service type.
l
When an OLT
forwards
services at
Layer 3, a Layer
3 MAN device
forwards the
services at
Layer 3.
VoD
service
The packets
of the VoD
service do not
carry a
VLAN tag.
A service
flow is
created
between a
CM and a D-
CMTS.
CM management
packets and
electronic program
guide (EPG)
packets carry the
same VLAN tag.
l
When an OLT
forwards
services at
Layer 2, the
OLT
transparently
transmits
VLAN tags to a
MAN device.
l
When an OLT
forwards
services at
Layer 3, the
OLT adds a
unique VLAN
tag to the
packets of a
service type.
