They decided to stay with Juniper and MPLS-TE I believe.

Josh-
Did your upstream engineer find an alternative solution or pursue a
new protocol?

Scott,
I had been talking to our upstream's primary network engineer a few
weeks back. They tested G8032v2 stuff from several vendors, and ended
up pulling it completely after a full year of testing.
Ring topology is a pretty dead design when "mesh" type options are
available with OSPF/IS-IS/MPLS.
Some of the things about 8032v2 are nice, but they will also be found
in SPB.
What we need is for Accedian to sell the continuous-throughput-testing
patent they have to another vendor.

Looking to add Ethernet ring protection switching into our network. I've
attached a PDF demonstrating the topology of the test tower set. I'm leaning
toward a G.8032v2 implementation simply because it's ITU standards based and
not vendor specific. Other options include Brocade MRP, Moxa Turbo Chain, etc.
Any shared wisdom would be greatly appreciate before we get ourselves pot
committed.
Scott
