A Simulation Study of Effect of MPLS on Latency over a Wide Area Network (WAN)
نویسندگان
چکیده
A scenario of a service provider network when heavily congested due to heavy traffic flow is brought into play to confirm the attribute of MPLS to significantly improve Latency especially in a highly congested network. The service provider network was congested by sending heavy packets through the ingress and egress port of the network. The network was simulated and ping tests were carried out from a company’s head office to one of its branch offices via the service provider network without MPLS implementation and with MPLS enabled. A graphical result showed that latency was reduced drastically with MPLS engaged as the packet forwarding technique on the same Wide Area Network (WAN).

Minimizing Metadata Access Latency in Wide Area Networked File Systems
Traditional network file systems, like NFS, do not extend to wide-area due to low bandwidth, high network latency, and dynamism introduced in the WAN environment. Metadata access latency is a significant performance problem for Wide Area File Systems, since metadata requests constitute a large portion of all file system requests, are synchronous, and cannot be cached at clients. We present Wire...

In this paper, a novel neuro-fuzzy based method combined with a feature selection technique is proposed for online dynamic voltage stability status prediction of power system. This technique uses synchronized phasors measured by phasor measurement units (PMUs) in a wide-area measurement system. In order to minimize the number of neuro-fuzzy inputs, training time and complication of neuro-fuzzy ...
متن کاملModelling and Analysis of Asymmetrical Latency in Packet-Based Networks for Current Differential Protection Application
Current differential protection typically requires symmetrical communications channels—with equal latency in each direction—for correct operation. Conventionally, this has been delivered using protocols such as IEEE C37.94 over a Time-Division Multiplexing (TDM) wide-area network (WAN). Modern packet-based WANs offer improvements in efficiency, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness for utility ap...
