Wipro's Ethernet MAC Bridge protocol stack provides a MAC bridging software (802.1D) with QoS (802.1p), VLAN (802.1Q), RSTP (802.1w), MSTP (802.1s), authentication (802.1X), IGMP snooping along with link aggregation (802.3ad) functionality. The solution supports IETF MIBs for SNMP management. Wipro Ethernet MAC Bridge solution offers OEM vendors and chipset vendors with a fully tested and integrated layer 2 protocol suite engineered for portability and scalability.

Backed by Wipro’s 20-year technological expertise and billion dollar service operations, Wipro helps chipset vendors and SBC vendors build high quality products with their hardware platform with standard compliant 'ready to deploy' solutions. This helps in crashing the customer's product development cycle and increasing the value at a lower cost.
