Dimensioning Network Resources in DiffServ Over MPLS Based Expedited Forwarding Service Subclasses

Overview The authors use the highest Differentiated Service Code Point (DSCP) values in DiffServ architecture, and employ the traffic engineering possibilities through MPLS techniques in order to introduce new premium services by splitting the expedited forwarding service class into three premium service subclasses in MPLS enabled DiffServ network. Consequently, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) will be able to announce and provide their customers different premium services based on Service Level agreements (SLAs) accomplished between them.

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. Another benefit here is the ability to monitor and prioritise traffic on an MPLS IP VPN.

What are IP VPNs good for?

Because IPSec encrypts data before forwarding it over the IP VPN and then decrypting it, there's a delay that makes using these apps together tough, and practically prohibits voice packets. Premium IP VPN service is provided over a private IP...
