What is EVPL?

EVPL stands for Ethernet Virtual Private Line. It's a type of Layer 2 VPN service that provides a point-to-point Ethernet connection between two customer locations. It's commonly used by businesses to connect geographically dispersed offices or data centers with dedicated bandwidth and predictable performance, offering a secure and reliable alternative to traditional leased lines. EVPLs are often delivered over a Carrier Ethernet network.
