Profitable Routed Network Services with Dense Virtual Routed Networking (DVRN)

Overview Collaborative IP services are the networking foundation for business relationships in our Internet-driven economy: virtual teams, web commerce, exchanges, mobile users, and dynamic partnerships. Successful service providers must offer solutions for these services, through a fusion of the trustworthy features of leased-line and frame relay networks with the dynamic features of the Internet. Crescent Networks’ Dense Virtual Routed Networking, or DVRN, is a new technology platform and architecture that delivers this fusion of capabilities. With DVRN, service providers can provision, manage, and scale up collaborative IP services for the entire extended enterprise, their partners, and customers…with breakthrough ease and profitability. It’s widely recognized that Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) has revolutionized transport networking.
