MPLS

ICCSolutions core network is fully Multi-Protocol Label Switching enabled. MPLS is a technology that integrates layer-two (L2) switching with layer-three (L3) IP routing. As IP traffic enters the network access routers they are “labeled” with their final destination. This allows the information to traverse the network without the need of each router performing the time-consuming task of looking of up the destination address (L3).

This provides several key benefits; the information travels faster reducing latency and L2 traffic requires less overhead, which frees up capacity for new data ensuring our network is always available to deliver your content.

MPLS offers Teleglobe’s customers with the best of both worlds, L2 speed in switching with L3 packet size. This technology enables ICCSolutions customers the ability to provide global VPN connectivity using MPLS/VPN and expand their network.
