Abstract: A communications system is provided for enabling a plurality of service providers to interconnect via an Ethernet platform, the plurality of service providers employing disparate Ethernet protocols. The system includes a central server and a plurality of switching locations. Each one of the plurality of switching locations is communicatively connected to the central server and to the plurality of service providers. Each of the plurality of switching locations includes a plurality of Ethernet router switches, a monitoring device, a local server coupled to a plurality of databases. Each of the plurality of databases is associated with each of the service providers. A communications media is provided for interconnecting the plurality of switches, the service providers, the router switches, the connectivity device, and the local server. The system enables the service providers to be interconnected on the Ethernet platform by establishing protocol mappings between any two Ethernet protocols associated with corresponding service providers.

Abstract translation: 提供通信系统以使多个服务提供商能够经由以太网平台互连，所述多个服务提供商采用不同的以太网协议。 该系统包括中央服务器和多个交换位置。 多个交换位置中的每一个都可通信地连接到中央服务器和多个服务提供商。 多个交换位置中的每一个包括多个以太网路由器交换机，监控设备，耦合到多个数据库的本地服务器。 多个数据库中的每一个都与每个服务提供者相关联。 提供通信介质用于互连多个交换机，服务提供商，路由器交换机，连接设备和本地服务器。 该系统通过在与相应服务提供商关联的任何两个以太网协议之间建立协议映射，使服务提供商能够在以太网平台上互连。
