Offer Lower-Cost Managed MPLS VPN
Customize levels of privacy, security, quality of service (QoS), and manageability with the site-to-site Cisco Managed MPLS VPN service. This MPLS VPN service is similar to networks built entirely on dedicated, privately owned, or leased facilities but at a fraction of the cost.
Offer Lower-Cost Managed MPLS VPN
You can deliver this MPLS VPN as a bundled service with managed customer premises equipment (CPE) or as an unbundled service without managed CPE.
With the Cisco MPLS VPN service solution, you can offer your customers:
- Scalable managed intranet and extranet services to link headquarters, branch offices, and partners on one network
- Remote access, differentiated classes of service, IP multicast, integrated Internet access, site backup, and network security
- Value-added services such as IP communications, video conferencing, e-commerce, and content hosting
- Voice, video, and data services over a converged network to lower the total cost of ownership and maintain QoS as you scale
Benefit from the Intelligence of MPLS VPN
A typical architecture for MPLS VPN converges data, voice, video, and wireless technologies over a single IP network. MPLS blends the intelligence of routing with the performance of switching. This combination offers significant benefits to networks with a native IP architecture, as well as those with IP, ATM, or a mixture of other Layer 2 technologies.
Enhance Network Service Quality with MPLS VPN
Packet separation through labeling helps ensure a higher degree of security. The end-to-end QoS monitoring capability helps support mission-critical applications across the network. Inherent MPLS traffic engineering and fast rerouting capabilities help increase network bandwidth and reroute traffic rapidly in failure conditions within the core network.
