Multiprotocol Label Switching is a mechanism in high-performance telecom. Networks that directs data from one network node to the next based on short path labels rather than long network addresses. This avoids complex lookups in routing tables and is easily identified.
MPLS is a scalable, protocol-independent transport. In an MPLS network, data packets are assigned labels and packet-forwarding are made solely on the contents of this label, without the need to maximize the packet itself.
There are many benefits and features of MPLS. Here, we provide a list of technical features you should look for when shopping for MPLS for you and your business!
- Support VoIP, real-time and bandwidth intensive Citrix applications as well as best-effort data. Allows traffic to be “engineered” through the implementation of Quality of Service across the network and class of service on the routers. You manage the traffic priorities.
- For SaaS providers that will support private networking, dramatically improve application performance versus internet access
- Very low packet loss compared to VPN over Internet.
- A comprehensive, end-to-end, carrier grade service level guarantee. All equipment maintenance will also be provided with a service level agreement.
- Expert advice and professional services to improve the use of technology and overall cost of the network.
- Scale to allow sites to be added and bandwidth to be upgraded easily – ideal for companies changing through acquisition or consolidation.
- Let your staff securely connect to your corporate network using a VPN, at the cost of a local call from anywhere in the country.
- Fully meshed to flatten the topology of your network reducing the technical risk associated with a hub-and-spoke frame-relay architecture and improving overall performance.
- Any to Any configuration. When your Private Network is provisioned between all your locations, all locations can potentially connect to each other – improving the overall performance and reliability of the network.
