As the industry's leader in networking solutions, Cisco provides the most comprehensive range of devices and technologies for enabling Internet Service Providers to sell highly secure, expandable, feature-rich voice, video, and data services. Progent's Cisco CCIE and CNA certified consultants have extensive backgrounds serving the unique requirements of Internet Service Providers by helping service providers to architect, deploy, and support high-availability, scalable systems suitable for public network environments.

Consulting services offered to Internet Service Providers from Progent's Cisco networking engineers include:

• Plan and implement Internet Service Provider network that minimizes capital and operating expense and streamlines system management
• Configure and maintain advanced ATM and MPLS service aggregation environments offering DSL, ATM, and T1 connectivity to large client populations
• Manage the transparent cutover between backbones and configure peering and BGP solutions
• Assist in deploying Cisco's software control solutions, update IOS software implementations, work with Cisco staff support experts in identifying and resolving sophisticated software problems, and executing migrations of appliances and interfaces
• Create specialized network management and usage accounting applications for customer bill back
• Implement network monitoring mechanisms that quickly identify and defend against the impacts of Denial of Service attacks
• Design and integrate metro network configurations and distributed POPs
• Assist with expanding and managing of metropolitan wireless mesh technology networks

Progent's Cisco Qualified Consulting for Cisco IOS MPLS
Cisco IOS Software Multiprotocol Label Switching allows Internet Service Providers to build smart networks that deliver a wide variety of functions over one system. This cost-effective technology can be integrated transparently over any in-place infrastructure, such as internet protocol, Frame Relay, or 10BASE-T. Because Multiprotocol Label Switching is isolated from access protocols, customers with differing access interfaces can be combined on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without modifying their existing environments.

Integration of MPLS application pieces including MPLS VPNs, Traffic Engineering (TE), Quality of Service, Generalized MPLS, and IPV6 protocol enables the development of fast, expandable, and protected networks that ensure Service Level Agreements.

Internet service providers can accelerate their time to break even by as much as 25% and realize an extra 50% of throughput availability by implementing MPLS Virtual Private Networks, MPLS Quality of Service, and MPLS Traffic Engineering instead of only installing the baseline connectivity of VPNs. Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE consultants can assist ISPs with the development, configuration, deployment, and management of large public network solutions that derive all the benefits of MPLS to optimize throughput, deliver secure connectivity, and meet service-level agreement (SLA) guarantees.
