A type of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) that primarily uses IP routers for routing data.

A routing mechanism in telecommunications networks that uses short labels to direct data.

A forwarding approach in MPLS where the forwarding decisions are made based on packet labels.

The process in traditional IP networks that each router performs to determine the next hop.

MPLS sits between the OSI data link layer and network layer, considered Layer 2.5.

A network where each router performs IP lookups to forward packets, resulting in more overhead.

MPLS provides efficient forwarding by using labels instead of full addresses.

Features of IP-MPLS that support both Layer 2 (data link) and Layer 3 (network) connections.

Forwarding Equivalence Class, a value assigned to a packet to identify the route it should take.

Part of the MPLS header, indicating the path a packet should follow in the network.

A table used by MPLS devices to determine the forwarding instructions for packets with specific labels.

A unidirectional path between two routers within an MPLS network.

The router that first wraps a packet in an MPLS label and determines the initial path.

A router that handles MPLS packet switching along an LSP, but doesn't initiate the route.

Software-defined Wide Area Network, a WAN with separated control and network hardware.

The last router in an LSP (Label Switched Path), which removes the label.

When a router (LSR) makes forwarding decisions based on a label in the frame.

An LSR that interacts with an ATM switch to manage label information within the ATM network.

A protocol used for distributing label bindings in an MPLS network to enable hop-by-hop packet forwarding.

A group of IP packets with the same forwarding behavior (e.g., destination, path, service).

The part of MPLS responsible for routing information exchange and label distribution.

The part of MPLS responsible for forwarding packets based on labels or destination IP addresses.

MPLS VPN allows for easy expansion of the network without needing major hardware additions.

MPLS simplifies adding new connections between different parts of your network using minimal hardware. It's like plugging more devices into your network without needing a bigger router.

MPLS connects data centers, branch offices, and remote locations seamlessly, ensuring smooth data flow.

MPLS enables easy addition of remote connections, eliminating the need for extra gear at the primary location. It works similarly to cloud-based services where no physical connection is needed.

MPLS leaves the complex WAN routing tasks to the service provider, simplifying network management and reducing staffing needs.

MPLS allows prioritizing critical traffic like VoIP calls to ensure smooth performance, even when facing network congestion.

Unlike overlay VPNs that require tunnelling, MPLS provides network isolation and security without encryption. It uses labels instead of tunnels to distinguish traffic.

Frame relay VPNs focus on data transport, while MPLS-enabled VPNs go beyond that, providing a platform for various network services.

Network devices designed specifically for Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS), offering faster routing and efficient bandwidth use.

Network equipment that can be customized with different connection types, allowing for both legacy and modern network components to coexist.

A centralized Network Operations Center (NOC) responsible for managing network operations within a specific geographical area.

A Network Operations Center (NOC) dedicated to a specific division, handling local network monitoring and troubleshooting.

NMS (Network Management System) is a software application for managing the network, while NOC (Network Operations Center) is the physical location where trained personnel monitor and manage the network.

MPLS enables seamless communication between any two points in a network, regardless of their location or type of traffic.

MPLS offers guaranteed service quality through Service Level Agreements (SLAs), providing reliable delivery unlike less predictable broadband services.

MPLS effectively manages various types of network traffic, allowing for efficient use of bandwidth for diverse applications.

MPLS supports alternative network paths, ensuring continuous connectivity even if one link fails, improving network uptime.

MPLS utilizes alternative routes to avoid congested areas, minimizing network delays and improving data transfer speeds.

MPLS requires collaboration with the service provider to configure and manage network settings, limiting complete user control.

MPLS being a sophisticated networking technology can be more expensive than basic Ethernet setups, but less costly than traditional T1 connections.

Indian Railways use Divisional HQs as central points for network operations, housing servers and applications needed for their diverse communication needs.
