Ethernet Virtual Private Line (EVPL) is a data service defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum, providing a point-to-point Ethernet connection between a pair of User-Network Interfaces (UNIs). EVPL service is specified using an E-Line service type, very similar to a Ethernet Private Line (EPL) service, via a point-to-point Ethernet Virtual Connection (EVC). However, unlike EPL, EVPL allows for Service Multiplexing, i.e. , multiple EVCs or Ethernet services per UNI.

  • Ethernet Virtual Private Line (EVPL) is a data service defined by the Metro Ethernet Forum, providing a point-to-point Ethernet connection between a pair of User-Network Interfaces (UNIs). EVPL service is specified using an E-Line service type, very similar to a Ethernet Private Line (EPL) service, via a point-to-point Ethernet Virtual Connection (EVC). However, unlike EPL, EVPL allows for Service Multiplexing, i.e. , multiple EVCs or Ethernet services per UNI. The other difference between the EVPL and EPL is the degree of transparency - while EPL is highly transparent, filtering only the Pause frames, EVPL is required to either peer or drop most of the Layer 2 Control Protocols.
