MPLS
It is used for routing network traffic in high-speed telecommunications networks. MPLS can encapsulate different network protocol packets. MPLS delivers significant network management benefits – better reliability and better performance. It is gradually replacing SDH networks.
ADVANTAGES – Why to use MPLS
- Protocol-independent technology
- Improved reliability
- Higher performance
- Removing dependency on certain link layer OSI model technology
- MPLS-TP for circuit preservation
BASIC FUNCTIONS
- Network traffic routing method
- Uses short fixed-length labels
- Allows you to create network circuits
- It transmits different kinds of traffic
