Glossary

Figure 50: Deployment scenario — Routed video surveillance and IP camera deployment for

transportation, airports, and government

The following list outlines the benefits of the routed video surveillance solution:

• Easy endpoint provisioning

• Optimal resiliency and mc forwarding

• Secure tenant separation

• Rapid channel/camera switching

Metro-Ethernet Provider solution

VSP 9000, ERS 8000, VSP 7000 and VSP 4000 provide an end-to-end Metro-Ethernet Provider

solution. Leveraging fabric connect throughout the infrastructure enables a scalable and flexible

wholesale provider infrastructure.

VSP 4000 switches are used as the access product, VSP 7000 switches build the distribution layer,

and in large-scale solutions VSP 9000 can be leveraged to build the core of the network.

This use case extends the Transparent UNI functionality to transparently forward any customer

VLAN across the services.
