Abstract
A centralized network administrator may automatically provision an Ethernet circuit between network elements by storing and managing circuit data (managed objects) in one of the network elements (master node) and synchronizing the circuit data among the network nodes in the Ethernet circuit path. In addition, multiple network administrators may provision multiple Ethernet circuits using the overlapping network elements by managing access to the circuit data in the Master node.
