MULTI PROTOCOL LABEL SWITCHING (MPLS):
BUILD NEXT GENERATION INTELLIGENT NETWORKS
What is an MPLS?
Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a Sophisticated Networking Technique used to efficiently route data packets within a network. MPLS operates at the data link layer and network layer of the OSI model and is employed by many telecommunications and service providers to optimize data transmission and ensure quality of service.
Key Features
Traffic Engineering
Allows network administrators to control the routing of data traffic, optimizing network resources and reducing congestion.
Quality of Service (QoS)
Enables the prioritization of traffic types, ensuring that critical data, such as VoIP or video streaming, receives the necessary bandwidth and low latency.
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)
Can be used to create secure and efficient VPNs, connecting geographically dispersed locations with enhanced privacy and performance.
Reduced Network Complexity
Simplifies network management by centralizing routing decisions and allowing for more efficient use of network resources.
Seamless Integration
Networks can integrate different types of connections, such as leased lines, Ethernet, and IP, into a cohesive network infrastructure.
