Progent's Cisco-certified Consulting for Cisco IOS Software Multiprotocol Label Switching
Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) enables ISPs to implement intelligent environments that deliver a broad selection of functions over one system. This economical solution can be deployed seamlessly across any existing infrastructure, such as internet protocol, Frame Relay, or Ethernet. Because MPLS is independent of connectivity technologies, subscribers with various connectivity interfaces can be aggregated on an MPLS edge without changing their current environments.

Integration of MPLS application pieces including layers 3 and 2 VPNs, MPLS-Traffic Engineering (TE), MPLS QoS, Generalized MPLS (GMPLS), and IPV6 protocol enables the creation of fast, scalable, and secure networks that guarantee Service Level Agreements.

Service providers can accelerate their time to break even by as much as a quarter and achieve an additional 50% of throughput capability by deploying MPLS VPNs, MPLS QoS, and MPLS TE instead of only providing the bare bones connectivity of Virtual Private Networks. Progent's Cisco CCIE consultants can help service providers with the design, configuration, deployment, and support of large public network environments that take full advantage of MPLS technology to optimize performance, deliver protected connectivity, and comply with service-level agreement (SLA) guarantees.
