Analyzing the Performance of Various Corporate Networks using Multi-Protocol Label Switching Technology

Abstract

Mulit-protocol label switching has been a building block in providing WAN connectivity. Traffic from multiple customers can travel over the service provider's shared MPLS network, making it a VPN service. MPLS VPN provides efficiency for very large networks. It lends scalability, security, and high quality of service to a network. This project encompasses the behavior of a MPLS and a Non-MPLS network when various services like web, VoIP, DNS are deployed on it. Our work emphasis on the way MPLS is capable of handling heavy traffic in large scale networks along with better performance based on the parameters -jitter, latency and round trip time.
