Best Effort Traffic Drives Service Providers to Simpler, Faster Cores

Tags:
ethernet

Overview With best effort traffic dominating, service providers are looking for a cost-effective alternative to service-rich, converged networks. For many, the service-rich core they've built around multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) is overkill for the bulk of their actual traffic. Consequently, they're turning to lower-cost infrastructure alternatives based on 10 Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and traditional IP routing.
