MetroEthernet - VLAN design considerations

WAN - how to choose a WAN technology


MetroEthernet is a [Wide Area Network](/wide-area-network) (WAN) technology that leverages [Ethernet](/ethernet) as the main transmission protocol.  

MetroEthernet was first used outside of the LAN in metropolitan areas, called **MANs (Metropolitan Area Network)**. We use fiber cabling because of the support for longer distances.

There are several aspects of MetroEthernet that you can find out more about at the following notes:

* [MetroEthernet - Virtual Private Wire Service](/metroethernet-virtual-private-wire-service)
