WINDSTREAM CARRIER SOLUTIONS:
Carrier Ethernet Services
ASR Ordering Guide
Version 2.2, September 2014
Overview
The Carrier Ethernet (E-Access) product leverages Windstream’s MPLS and Ethernet
infrastructure to provide switched Ethernet services to wholesale customers.
Wholesale service providers find Windstream’s unique Carrier Ethernet services
footprint to be a natural complement to their service delivery capabilities, and
seamless interoperability is paramount to a ubiquitous service experience.
•
Service attributes are based on the Metro Ethernet Forum Technical
Specification “MEF 33 Ethernet Access Service Definitions”.
•
MEF 33 defines two service types, E-Access EVPL (Ethernet Virtual Private
Line) which is a VLAN-based solution that supports service multiplexing at the
UNI, and E-Access EPL (Ethernet Private Line) which is a Port based service
that includes all-to-one bundling.
Service Types
E-Access EPL - A port based service with a high degree of transparency (Figure 1).
As a transparent service there is no need to coordinate a detailed CE-VLAN ID to
OVC mapping. All service frames at the UNI will be mapped to a single OVC;
however, the S-VLAN ID at the E-NNI is preserved and will need to be coordinated.
Figure 1
2
E-Access EVPL - A VLAN based service that allows multiple service instances to be
configured at the UNI interface (Figure 2). This service will require an OVC endpoint
map for each OVC to specify how service frames are mapped at the UNI. In addition,
the S-VLAN ID value will need to be coordinated between Windstream and the
Wholesale customer

Pricing Structure
E-NNI
• Standardized E-NNI pricing for 1G and 10G
• Oversubscription is allowed but must be managed by the customer
UNI
• EoC, T1, and fiber loop options available
• Standardized EoC pricing , T1 pricing per serving wire center
• Inter-region fee allows a carrier to access end user locations outside
of the serving area of a given peering point
E-NNI Extensions
• Windstream can extend services from the E-NNI router location to an
alternate location. Pricing is subject to ICB rates.
Ordering Overview
Carrier Ethernet E-Access can be ordered using Access Service Requests (ASRs),
which will identify User Network Interface (UNI), E-Access Service Type, and the CIR
requested for each customer interface.
At the current time, multiple SLA-driven Classes of Service (CoS) are not available.
Any changes to the current product offering will be communicated through proper
channels.
Physical Connection (UNI) – Provides the physical connection from the
customer premises to an Ethernet switch on the Windstream network. The
available transmission interface types are 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, and 10 Gbps.
o Port-Based UNI – 10/100 Mbps & 1 Gbps and supports one OVC
o VLAN-Based UNI – 10/100 Mbps & 1 Gbps and supports multiple OVCs
5
o VLAN-Based ENNI – 1 Gbps & 10 Gbps and supports multiple OVCs
Committed Information Rate (CIR) – Specifies the bandwidth available over
the UNI. CIR is available in increments from 3 Mbps to 10,000 Mbps.
Operator Virtual Circuit (OVC) – Provides the logical connection for Ethernet
traffic between the UNI and E-NNI.
o OVCs are available from 3 Mbps to 1 Gbps

ASR Requirements
In order to accurately provision and bill for Carrier Ethernet services, Windstream
requires that all fields of the ASR be completed based on the most recent Telcordia
standards.
The information that follows outlines the proper use of a subset of these required
fields that are necessary to process an ASR for Windstream E-Access ENNIs, UNIs,
and OVCs. If additional resources are needed, please contact Telcordia for formal
ASR training or your Windstream Account Management team.
Note: The E-NNI circuit must be ordered prior to any UNI orders being submitted. In
addition, the UNI must be ordered prior to the OVC/EVC since the OVC order must
reference the appropriate E-NNI and UNI.

NOTE: In some situations if the configuration would be EU-EU or EU-CO, and that does not
show as a valid combination, but there is an AC-EU or AC-EU, that can be used as a valid
combination (Assumption is one EU is acting as the AC or the EU is acting as an AC when
going to a CO).

Revision Description
Initial Release of the Carrier Ethernet Ordering
Guide
• Updated Product Overview to remove
Performance Parameters which now reside
outside of document.
• Notes on page 7 and RUID field on page
17 updated to remove “All UNI and EVC
ASR’s must reference the E-NNI facility”
• CNO field on page 8 changed to
CONDITIONAL
• SPEC field on page 9 updated from AEPL0
to AEPLX
• SECLOC field on pages 13 and 15
changed to REQUIRED.
• NC code reference on page 16 updated to
VLC- as the acceptable value.
• NCI field on page 16 updated to 02VLN.V
as the acceptable NC value.
• Service codes updated to reflect the 2M
EVPL and EPL Port CIR speed.
• EVC example on pages 37-40 replaced.
• Added 2M bandwidth offering and NC
codes
• Removed 04LN9.1CT from the NCI
Electrical Interface for EVPL and EPL
services
