Designing multiprotocol label switching networks

IEEE Communications Magazine, 2001
Multiprotocol label switching adds to the capabilities of IP networks in several ways. Despite new capabilities, MPLS technology has much in common with ordinary IP networks. In turn, the design process for MPLS networks has much in common with the design of any IP network.

Multiprotocol Label Switching

2003
MPLS introduces connection orientation and packet switching in IP networks. IP datagrams are forwarded by MPLS routers along pre-established paths, based on a short label. This reduces the amount of routing computations, which are carried out only at the times of setting up new paths.

A perspective on photonic multiprotocol label switching

IEEE Network, 2001
Various MPLS-based IP over WDM integration techniques are considered in this article. In particular, this includes the circuit-switching MP/spl lambda/S framework for providing logical IP-layer topologies over optical lightpath routing networks. Additionally, an optical code label switching technique for photonic packet switching and its application to

M-MPLS: Micromobility-enabled multiprotocol label switching

IEEE International Conference on Communications, 2003. ICC '03., 2004
This paper presents the integration of multiprotocol label switching with hierarchical mobile IPv6. The resulting micromobility-based MPLS (M-MPLS) is defined in two modes of operation: overlay and integrated. In an overlay framework MPLS and HMIP operate on their respective layers without having common processes, tables, or signaling. In an integrated

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)

2011
The idea behind Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is simple. In datagram switching each packet is treated as an independent element by routers. If one implements a Differentiated Services architecture, each independent packet is treated according to a policy specifically for its service class.

IETF Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Architecture

1998 1st IEEE International Conference on ATM. ICATM'98, 2002
This paper presents the concepts of the multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) technology currently under standardisation by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). MPLS can be used for transport of any level 3 protocol over any level 2 technology so that one of its applications is integrated transport of IP over ATM for next-generation Internet and ...

Reroute sequence planning for label switched paths in multiprotocol label switching networks

Proceedings. Sixth IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications, 2002
This paper deals with the problem of reroute sequence planning for label switched paths (LSPs) in multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) networks. This problem arises when the path set is recalculated by a global optimization method for achieving a better resource utilization.

Survivability Mechanisms of Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching

2008
Internet protocol (IP) over optical (IP-over-optical) networks is the widely accepted solution to meet the ever increasing demands of IP traffic. In an IP-over-optical network, the IP routers are attached to an optical core network, composed by optical cross-connects (OXC) that are interconnected by dynamically established optical wavelength channels ...

Traffic engineering with multiprotocol label switching

E-Tech 2004, 2004
This paper discusses traffic engineering with multiprotocol label switching in an Internet service provider's network. First traffic engineering is introduced. Then problems with traditional router cores and IP overlay networks are discussed. Finally a strategy for traffic engineering utilizing multiprotocol label switching is discussed.
