What is it?
Multi-protocol Label Switching is used to enhance the flow of traffic on a network by making better use of available network paths. MPLS creates labels for IP packets or Ethernet frames. These MPLS labels inherit Quality of Service (QoS) tagging or Class of Service (CoS) priority, which network designers use to schedule the packet’s movement across a network.

The continuous growth of new technology available for the workplace presents an atmosphere of rapid change that will not slow down any time soon in the near future. Numerous businesses have experienced the process of implementing new technologies and the various issues that creep up, from an overall lack of employee acceptance to unexpected minor malfunctions. The caveat is, despite some of the nuances, new technologies are necessary for a business to remain competitive, relevant, and increase profit margins.
The proper and efficient use of new technology in the workplace is crucial. The younger generations beginning to enter the workforce are tech savvy and widely accept the evolving nature of technology, but all employees need to be on board for a technological implementation to be successful and beneficial. One way of doing this is to provide plenty of training, specific for various departments if necessary, and during and after training to disperse an employee evaluations survey of how effective the training is and thoughts about the new implementations.
When implementing new technology, you require as many people on your team as possible. Technical difficulties can be avoided if you have a team or Agent to work with you during the implementations process. For instance, NWMAP offers the services of their Telecom Brokers to assist from beginning to end; shop for a low cost specific plan for your business, have the experience to know what to troubleshoot and how to move the installation along, provide moving services for successful transfer of technologies, and consulting with on-site visits to help you make choices without resorting to confusing technical jargon.
