Consolidating Networks Using Cisco Any Transport over MPLS

Overview The realization of consolidated networks and converged, packet-based architectures requires incremental migration solutions that must protect and optimize existing infrastructure investments and revenues, while leading to new, highly profitable service portfolios. The Cisco Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) solution leverages Multi-protocol Label Switching (MPLS) core networks to build and maximize Layer 2 and 3 service revenues by consolidating networks on the industry's leading multi-service platform, the Cisco Carrier IP/MPLS Portfolio.

Convergence: lower costs and extra flexibility - the IP VPN promise

IP VPNs supported by the Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) quality of service standard offer a premium virtual network service over a private IP network. Setting up a converged network was a decision based as much on what applications they...

BT to go all IP, promises universal broadband

If the 21st Century Network project, as BT calls it, is a success, the telco will be able to deliver voice and data services over a network supporting Internet Protocol (IP) and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).

IP equals new alliances - get used to it

One of the most important developments to help companies deploy converged applications is the emergence of IP virtual private networks (VPNs) with classes of service, in the shape of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).

What are IP VPNs good for?

Premium IP VPN service is provided over a private IP network supported by Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS), which effectively prioritises traffic in accordance with application type. While it's clear these verticals, plus manufacturing, are...

Has Gigabit Ethernet come of age?

Rufner said although ATM is moving towards new carrier requirements, Ethernet "is starting to make inroads in the MAN as a cost-effective switching layer because of multi protocol label switching [MPLS]".
