Telecom Wholesale EUBA information

The EUBA product was announced and released a long time ago, however information seems to be thin on the ground. From a CPE perspective, the EUBA product can be used in one of two modes:

• legacy/compatibility mode with PPPoA

• native

The legacy mode allows the CPE to be unchanged, and to continue to use PPPoA with a PVC of 0/100. The connection will be presented at the handoff to the ISP with a different VLAN ID.

The native mode uses:

• ethernet bridging
• PVC 0/110
• VLAN 10

And can support VLANs, IPv4, IPv6 and QoS/CoS. At the time of writing I can find no 'works for me' stories.

Option 2: Ethernet encapsulation or RFC 1483 encapsulation, VLAN tagging (802.1q) with a VLAN ID of 10 is required on the WAN interface with a VPI of 0 and a VCI of 110. With a VoIP quality connection use priority tagging (802.1p) of 0 for normal internet traffic and 6 for realtime traffic - VoIP/Video. Not available on the BisLITE connections.
