Progent's Cisco Qualified Consulting Services for Cisco IOS MPLS
Cisco IOS MPLS allows Internet Service Providers to implement smart environments that deliver a wide variety of functions over one infrastructure. This economical technology can be integrated seamlessly over any in-place environment, such as IP, ATM, or 10BASE-T. Because Multiprotocol Label Switching is independent of connectivity protocols, subscribers with various access links can be combined on an Multiprotocol Label Switching edge without changing their existing environments.

Integration of Multiprotocol Label Switching application pieces including Layer 3 VPNs, Layer 2 VPNs, MPLS-Traffic Engineering, QoS, Generalized MPLS, and IPV6 protocol allows the creation of fast, scalable, and protected network environments that guarantee Service Level Agreements.

Internet service providers can accelerate their time to profitability by as much as a quarter and realize an additional 50% of throughput availability by deploying MPLS VPNs, MPLS QoS, and MPLS Traffic Engineering instead of merely installing the conventional connectivity of VPNs. Progent's Cisco-certified CCIE consultants can assist ISPs with the planning, set up, deployment, and support of shared public network solutions that derive all the benefits of Cisco IOS MPLS to optimize performance, provide secure connectivity, and comply with service level agreements.
