Excerpt

The organization purchasing and/or using MEF-defined services such as EVC-based Carrier Ethernet services. Also known as the 'End User' (MEF 10.3 p8)

The Subscriber describes to the Service Provider the connectivity that the Subscriber requires and the traffic specifications in terms of guaranteed bandwidth (CIR) and Excess Bandwidth (EIR) and the associated burst sizes (CBS and EBS). This is collectively known as Bandwidth Profile.

The Service Provider offers the Ethernet service(s) to the Subscriber and optionally provides a Service Level Specification (SLS) which can include service performance metrics for the guaranteed traffic (see Service Level Agreement (SLA))
