Performance Analysis of MPLS TE Queues for QoS Routing
White Paper In order to maximize network resources, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) is used in IP networks so that traffic can be routed on a path which may not be chosen by a standard routing method. [11 Jul 2008]
Optical-Label Switching, MPLS, MPLambdaS, and GMPLS
White Paper As in MPLS, optical-label switching networks separates the control plane and the data plane to facilitate protocol and format independence for the data payload. Optical-label switching offers seamless integration of data and optical networking... [10 Jul 2008]
A Methodology for Monitoring LSP Availability in MPLS Networks
White Paper Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is an evolving technology that can enable new service offerings such as Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) to be delivered over an IP infrastructure. However, there is presently no mechanism for confirming... [10 Jul 2008]
Removing Cell Demultiplexing Performance Bottleneck in ATM Pseudo Wire Emulation Over MPLS Networks
White Paper Cell multiplexing is highly desirable to achieve increased transport efficiency in Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) pseudo wire emulation over a MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) network. The idea is to configure a sequence of concatenated data... [10 Jul 2008]
Multi-Protocol Label Switching and the nGenius Solution
White Paper Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is becoming mainstream as enterprises and government agencies look for new ways to lower costs, extend scalability, improve reliability, and secure their networked data. [04 Jul 2008]
Business Impact of Transparent Optical Switching
White Paper The emergence of the IP/Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) framework as a common control plane for data and optical layers is an early, but definitive, trend indicator. With WDM and Internet Protocol (IP) as the dominant technologies in current... [03 Jul 2008]
Accelerating the Transition to IPv6 Using the Intel Internet Exchange Architecture
White Paper For example, IPv6 uses flow-label capabilities to better support the real-time delivery of data. IPv6 is specifically designed to run well on high-performance networks, and yet can still be efficient for low-bandwidth (such as wireless) networks. [03 Jul 2008]
Comparing the Delivery of Multicast Music-on-Hold Over Permanent Virtual Circuit Switched Networks and MPLS Networks Using GRE Tunnels
White Paper The convergence of voice and data over existing data circuits has led enterprise network managers to consider whether to continue the deployment of hub-and-spoke circuit switched services supported in-house, or to opt for a service-provider... [03 Jul 2008]
Smart Investing in Data Core Networks
White Paper It describes how service providers in the Internet protocol/multiprotocol label switching (IP/MPLS) core space can optimize profitability through smart investing. For IP/MPLS core networks, two requirements are key reliability and scalability. [03 Jul 2008]
G-MPLS for Photonic Service Switching
White Paper After a brief discussion of network architecture with G-MPLS and the use of a Photonic Service Switch as a Generalized Label Switch Router (G-LSR), the paper describes behavior and use of G-MPLS on the data plane, the signaling plane, and for... [03 Jul 2008]
