<div>Hello everyone</div> <div>A Metro Ethernet service provider enters into an agreement with a subscriber for a E-Line or E-LAN service, with a set of service attributes. The service provider agrees to provide a particular frame delay, frame jitter, availability and frame loss for a certain percentile of service frames alongwith CIR, CBS, EIR, EBS. </div> <div>Within the service provider's packet switched metro network, several other subscriber's traffic is also statistically multiplexed. My question is, how does the service provider ensure the delay, jitter and loss guarantees for the agreed percentile of service frames?</div> <div>Thanks and best regards</div><BR><BR>Muhammad Saqib Ilyas<br>Assistant Professor<br>Department of Computer and Information Systems Engineering<br>NED University of Engineering and Technology, Karachi, Pakistan<br>http://www.saqibilyas.info<br>Graduate Student, LUMS<br>Country Leader, INETA Pakistan<br>Microsoft Most
