Progent's Cisco-certified Consulting Services for Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching
Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching enables Internet Service Providers to implement smart environments that deliver a wide selection of services over a single infrastructure. This economical solution can be deployed transparently across any in-place infrastructure, such as IP, Frame Relay, or 10BASE-T. Since MPLS is isolated from connectivity protocols, customers with various access links can be aggregated on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without modifying their existing environments.

Combining MPLS application components including MPLS Virtual Private Networks, MPLS-Traffic Engineering (TE), QoS, GMPLS, and IPV6 protocol allows the development of highly efficient, scalable, and protected network environments that guarantee Service Level Agreements.

Service providers can reduce their time to profitability by as much as 25% and realize an extra 50% of throughput availability by implementing MPLS VPNs, MPLS Quality of Service, and MPLS TE rather than merely installing the baseline connectivity of Virtual Private Networks. Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE engineers can assist service providers with the planning, set up, implementation, and management of shared public networks that take full advantage of MPLS to maximize performance, deliver safe connectivity, and comply with service level agreements.
