Abstract
This paper presents a new resilient Ethernet ring (RER) approach to allow the Ethernet to be operated in ring topologies for transporting data in metropolitan area networks (MANs). Developed based on standard Ethernet datalink switching technology, RER is simple and data-efficient. The ring topology simplifies the decision-making process for frame forwarding and also enables the RER to recover from failure within 50 ms. Simulations show that RER transports data efficiently in MANs
