Hello:
It could also just be a direct Ethernet path over a SONET circuit =
without the inherent 802.17 resiliency. You should ask them for more =
information about their infrastructure. Are they using 802.17? Is it =
path-protected on the SONET side?

This is most likely something like RPR/802.17 which is Ethernet over
Sonet/SDH.
