This brief overview of Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) will explain the role EEE plays in making a networked system energy proportional. In 2006, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) conducted a study to understand data center energy use trends and recommended a systems-wide approach to achieving energy efficiency. In the same year, the IEEE began work on Energy Efficient Ethernet, which upon completion in 2010, produced another tool in the energy efficiency solution set. The specification includes twisted pair and backplane Ethernet interfaces up to and including 10 gigabits per second, using a method called Low Power Idle (LPI) to reduce energy use when there is no data to send. This presentation examines the motivation for energy proportional networking, provides a high-level view of EEE functionality and concludes with a discussion of opportunities to develop the technology to optimize network energy use. - See more at: www.nanog.org/m...
