Chapter 1: Product description Ethernet bridging
The service is transparent to untagged frames, standard VLAN frames, priority-tagged frames,
provider bridged frames, Q-in-Q frames and provider backbone bridged frames. In each case,
the service preserves MAC addresses, VLAN ID, Ethernet priority and Ethernet payload in the
forwarded frame. The maximum frame size for bridged frames in the second data service is
2000 bytes.
There is no requirement for the second data service to be connected to the same Ethernet port
at both ends of a wireless link. For example, it is possible to connect the Main PSU port to the
second data service at one end of the link and to connect the Aux port to the second data
service at the other end of the link.
Layer two control protocols
The Second Data Service in the PTP 700 Series is transparent to layer two control protocols
(L2CP) including:
• Spanning tree protocol (STP), rapid spanning tree protocol (RSTP)
• Multiple spanning tree protocol (MSTP)
• Link aggregation control protocol (LACP)
• Link OAM, IEEE 802.3ah
• Port authentication, IEEE 802.1X
• Ethernet local management interface (E-LMI), ITU-T Q.933.
• Link layer discovery protocol (LLDP)
• Multiple registration protocol (MRP)
• Generic attribute registration protocol (GARP)
The management service in the PTP 700 Series does not generate or respond to any L2CP
traffic.
Quality of service for bridged Ethernet traffic
The PTP 700 Series supports a single traffic queue in the Second Data Service for Ethernet
frames waiting for transmission over the wireless link. The priority of the queue can be varied
with respect to the eight queues used for the data service.
Fragmentation
Ethernet frames in the PTP 700 Series Second Data Service are always fragmented for
transmission over the wireless link, even when the single queue for the Second Data Service
has higher priority than all of the data service queues.
Second Data port wireless link down alert
The PTP 700 Series provides an optional indication of failure of the wireless link by means of a
brief disconnection of the copper or optical data port allocated to the Second Data Service. The
Wireless link down alert can be used to trigger protection switching by Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP) or Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS) and other higher layer protocols in a
redundant network.
