Progent's Cisco-certified Consulting for Cisco IOS Software Multiprotocol Label Switching
Cisco IOS Software Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) allows ISPs to implement intelligent networks that deliver a broad selection of functions over one infrastructure. This cost-effective technology can be integrated seamlessly across any in-place environment, such as IP, Frame Relay, or 10BASE-T. Because Multiprotocol Label Switching is isolated from connectivity protocols, subscribers with differing access interfaces can be aggregated on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without modifying their current environments.

Integration of Multiprotocol Label Switching application pieces including layers 3 and 2 VPNs, MPLS-Traffic Engineering (TE), QoS, Generalized MPLS, and IPV6 protocol allows the creation of fast, expandable, and secure network environments that ensure SLAs.

Service providers can reduce their time to break even by up to a quarter and realize an extra 50% of throughput availability by implementing MPLS Virtual Private Networks, MPLS QoS, and MPLS Traffic Engineering as opposed to only installing the plain vanilla functions of Virtual Private Networks. Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE consultants can assist Internet service providers with the planning, configuration, deployment, and management of large public network environments that derive all the benefits of MPLS technology to optimize bandwidth, provide secure connectivity, and comply with service-level agreement (SLA) guarantees.
