Business Solutions: MPLS VPN

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is generating a name for itself in the Telecom industry. It is the fastest growing Wide Area Network (WAN) technology, utilized by leading enterprises.  MPLS blends the performance and privacy standards of WAN technologies, such as frame relay, with the flexibility and sensible cost of Internet-based networks.

Big Advantages For Businesses:

  1. Quality of Service (QoS). QoS will ensure the most vital network traffic in your organization, such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and various business applications, are prioritized for the highest level of quality. This capability provides consistent, interruption free network performance and prevents your most critical applications from failing during times of network congestion.
  2. Hassle-free Value. Site-to-Site MPLS VPN service eliminates hassle for the end users. In addition, the team of Telecom Agents at NWMAP are able to provide you with the level of service that cuts costs as well as takes all the pressure off your users and even the IT staff. The responsibility and quality of performance is in our hands while still saving you money.
  3. Ideal for multi-location enterprises. MPLS VPN Networks can increase productivity by streamlining your operations and decreasing network complexity.

Selecting The Best MPLS Service

Selecting the optimal MPLS service starts with a clear knowledge of your business requirements, what size company you have, and your network design. Many sources will unanimously state that it’s best to utilize an Agent service to assist you because they have access to the “best-of-breed” in the industry. “If this is the first time you’re selecting MPLS-based services, get external help from an experienced consultant”,  Ivan Pepelnjak, who has worked in the industry for 25 years. Agent services aren’t tied down to using just one carrier’s products. Many Telecom Agent services or managed service providors have your best interest in mind, whereas dealing directly with carriers, they may suggest you only utilize their services, products, and sales agents who typically don’t have the experience a Telecom Agent does. 

Further suggestions, “Quite often you’ll be forced to combine multiple services in your network: MPLS VPN for smaller sites, VPLS for sites with high-availability requirements (to better control convergence speed and routing protocol behavior) and pseudowires for point-to-point links between your data centers.” NWMAP offers MPLS services from reputable carriers; Paetec, Integra Telecom, and Airespring.
