RiverSoft's NMOS monitors network technologies, such as ATM, Frame Relay, Switched Ethernet, VLAN and VPNs, and configures the network automatically. They identify the root cause of network problems, and automatically recognise changes in network...
Are we on the verge of a step-change in the quality of networking, a change that will put what we've come to expect from the likes of Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM), Frame Relay and all-IP to shame?
For multinationals, moving from international Frame Relay circuits to an MPLS IP VPN does not necessarily save money in the short term though longer-term financial payoffs are already being reported by early adopters.
Besides the increasingly popular IP, it works with protocols such as ATM and Frame Relay. Bobst Group, an equipment-provider for manufacturers, has extended its 10-year network relationship with Infonet.
In practice, the former involves finding a method of utilising traditional SDH infrastructure to transport IP using time-honoured protocols such as ATM and Frame Relay. In each location, we have an IP VPN router, SDH optical equipment and a Frame...
Out go ATM, Frame Relay and leased lines. At the top of the technologies labelled as 'in decline' is Frame Relay, which will generate 26 per cent less revenue than in the earlier 12-month period. In come DSL, Ethernet and IP virtual private...
