Design and Implementation of Performance Management for the DiffServ-Aware-MPLS Network

Tags:
quality of service

Overview MPLS has been developed to provide efficient traffic engineering capability for the massive high-speed Internet traffic. The major advantages of the MPLS are (i) fast label switching mechanism to increase the packet forwarding capability, and (ii) the connection oriented traffic engineering to provide flexible load balancing in the transit network. DiffServ-over-MPLS architecture provides differentiated services with guaranteed Quality-of-Service (QoS). For the QoS-guaranteed service provisioning, current IP networks, although they offer flexibility and scalability, need to be enhanced in availability and guaranteed QoS provisioning. To guarantee the user-requested QoS and to keep the network utilization at maximum, the performance management of DiffServ-over-MPLS is essential.

Ipv6: An acronym to shake the networked world

This can be done using MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) or tunnelling. It supports Quality of Service (QoS) and thus increasingly important real time communication for multimedia. QoS also goes with ToS," added Martens.

MPLS: The icing on the networking cake?

There are three main functions of MPLS, quality of service, traffic engineering - which includes a unique ability to re-route traffic very quickly in case of network failure - and enabling virtual private networks (VPNs).

ITU 03: C&W looks to allowing global QoS

IP VPNs often now take advantage of a technology called MPLS (multiprotocol label switching) for greater flexibility and quality of service (QoS), however QoS can become difficult for carriers to maintain as traffic jumps from one network to...

VoIP primer: How it works - and what the jargon means

On private networks - LAN, WAN or in the carrier's core - application performance can be assured using two distinct quality of service parameters: DiffServ and MPLS. Voice is typically given the highest priority, in MPLS terms this is likely to be...

VoIP: Don't forget about security

QoS [quality of service] is a key enabler when securing the network because we define certain types of traffic that are most likely to be generated by worm attacks, rate limiting those right at the edge of the network," he says.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
