A standardized way for mapping IP Packets into SONET/SDH payloads

...(略)

How does it work?

The layer 2 protocol used by POS technology offers astandarized way for mapping IP packets into SONET/SDH payloads.

1. Data is first segmented into an IP datagram that includes a 20-byte IP header.

2. This datagram is encapsulated via Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) packets and framing information is added with High-level Data Link Control (HDLC) – framing.

3. Gaps between frames are filled withflags, set to value 7E.

4. Octet stuffing occurs if any flags or resultant escape characters (of value 7D) are found in the data.

5. The resulting data is scrambled, and mapped synchronously by octet into the SONET/SDH frame.



POS is defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) in the following ‘Request For Comment’(RFC) documents:

RFC-1661 The Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
RFC-1662 PPP in HDLC framing
RFC-2615 PPP over SONET/SDHA standardized way for mapping IP Packets into SONET/SDH payloads
