Progent's Cisco-certified Consulting Services for Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching enables Internet Service Providers to build smart networks that deliver a wide range of functions over a single system. This cost-effective solution can be integrated seamlessly across any existing infrastructure, such as IP, Frame Relay, or 10BASE-T. Because Multiprotocol Label Switching is isolated from connectivity technologies, customers with various connectivity links can be aggregated on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without modifying their existing environments.

Integration of MPLS application components such as Layer 3 VPNs, Layer 2 VPNs, MPLS-Traffic Engineering, QoS, GMPLS, and IPV6 allows the development of high-performance, scalable, and protected network environments that ensure SLAs.

ISPs can accelerate their time to break even by up to a quarter and achieve an extra 50% of bandwidth capability by deploying MPLS Virtual Private Networks, MPLS Quality of Service, and MPLS Traffic Engineering instead of merely providing the baseline connectivity of Virtual Private Networks. Progent's Cisco qualified CCIE engineers can assist service providers with the development, configuration, implementation, and management of large public networks that derive all the benefits of MPLS technology to maximize bandwidth, deliver safe connectivity, and meet service level agreements.
