Abstract:
A network is operated by receiving traffic associated with a first service on a first pseudo wire at a network node. The traffic is encapsulated with one or more layers associated with the first pseudo wire. One or more layers associated with the first pseudo wire are removed from the traffic. The traffic is encapsulated with one or more layers associated with a second pseudo wire so that the traffic is associated with a second service. The traffic, which is associated with the second service, is transmitted on the second pseudo wire.
