Managing Your Migration to MPLS
Category: Desktops, Laptops and OS, Networking and Communications
Tags: network management, atm, mpls, ip, network, management
Overview Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is offered by a increasing number of carriers as a replacement for point-to-point frame relay and private IP WANs. It's especially popular for business VPNs. MPLS offers a number of advantages over traditional point-to-point technologies, including lower cost, greater scalability, and, in many cases, improved reliability. But the top concern of enterprises considering MPLS is not its eventual benefits but how to handle the migration. A fundamental problem is that the network management solutions they are using with frame relay, ATM, or TDM will not work with MPLS without extensive upgrades.
