Progent's Cisco Qualified Consulting for Cisco IOS Software Multiprotocol Label Switching
Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) allows ISPs to build intelligent networks that deliver a broad variety of services over one infrastructure. This cost-effective technology can be integrated seamlessly over any existing infrastructure, such as IP, ATM, or Ethernet. Since Multiprotocol Label Switching is independent of access technologies, subscribers with various connectivity interfaces can be combined on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without modifying their current environments. Combining Multiprotocol Label Switching application components including MPLS VPNs, MPLS-Traffic Engineering (TE), QoS, GMPLS, and IPV6 protocol enables the development of highly efficient, expandable, and secure network environments that ensure SLAs. Internet service providers can reduce their time to break even by as much as a quarter and realize an extra 50% of bandwidth capability by deploying MPLS Virtual Private Networks, MPLS Quality of Service, and MPLS TE instead of merely installing the plain vanilla connectivity of Virtual Private Networks. Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE engineers can help ISPs with the planning, set up, deployment, and provisioning of next-generation public network environments that derive all the benefits of MPLS to optimize performance, provide protected connectivity, and comply with service-level agreement (SLA) guarantees.
