Ananda Rajagopal, Foundry Networks

Ananda Rajagopal is a Product Manager responsible for Service Provider Solutions at Foundry Networks. Prior to joining Foundry, he was the Director of Presales, Software and QA at Lucent Technologies’ Broadband Access Business Unit. He also served various engineering management roles during his stint at Ascend Communications and later, Lucent Technologies. Before Ascend, he consulted at Stratacom / Cisco Systems for over 4 years, where he led engineering teams responsible for developing frame relay and ATM WAN products, including the industry’s first inverse multiplexing over ATM product. He has also played key roles in standardization efforts at the ATM Forum and DSL Forum in the past.
Abstract: Ethernet services today are a viable alternative for businesses looking for private line connectivity among locations. One obstacle to the global deployment of such services is the limited reach of service providers offering such Ethernet services. Multi-provider Ethernet services are therefore important in ensuring mass-deployment and continued success of the Ethernet services market. In order to ensure operational success of multi-provider Ethernet services, the hand-off between providers needs to be sufficiently simple and flexible. This talk explores the viability of using a combination of VPLS and the recently standardized IEEE 802.1ad technologies as the underlying methodology for offering multi-provider Ethernet services. An overview of the methodology, benefits, potential challenges and comparison with alternative approaches will be covered in this talk.
