LANE would be the solution some time ago. I think LANE is a bealtiful technology, although one would not consider to implement it nowadays.
The problem is the propagation of layer 2 problems across your campus network. In the past, it was a good solution to built isolated network throughout an ATM backbone, solving the problem of extending Vlans across a country for example. >From what I know EoMPLS can substitute the functionality of LANE - provide layer 2 services - but I do not know if it is deployed out there.
