Abstract This document presents a set of requirements for the establishment and maintenance of Point-to-Multipoint (P2MP) Traffic-Engineered (TE) Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Label Switched Paths (LSPs). There is no ...

In Programmable Virtual Network (PVN), network providers sell network resources including programmable/nonprogrammable nodes and links connecting the nodes to customers for building their virtual networks. PVN can use Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) for creating virtual channels and fast packet forwarding. By using special MPLS labels, PVN can identify customers’ packets that require proc...

MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) provides interesting mechanisms to integrate network technologies like ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) and IP (Internet Protocol) with QoS (Quality of Service). It is a next generation technology with a great interest in teaching of networks and communications in Telematics Engineering degrees. In this paper we show a simulator as an innovative and educatio...

This paper presents a review of QoS (Quality of Service) Routing algorithms and Load Balancing Techniques in MPLS Networks. MPLS has high lightened as the most promising technology for the internet to provide the speed and bandwidth guaranteed services. It is good to apply MPLS in an internet environment to make it efficient and get more customer satisfaction while using internet. In this paper...

MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) is used today inside most large Service Provider (SP) networks. In this paper, we analyze the establishment of interdomain MPLS LSPs with QoS constraints. These LSPs cross diverse SP networks that may belong to different companies. We show that using the standard BGP route for the establishment of such LSPs is not sufficient. We propose two path establishmen...

This paper presents simulation and analysis of constraint-based routing (CR) with MPLS (multiprotocol label switching). MPLS is basically a fast forwarding scheme for the core of the Internet. Constraint-based routing computes routes that are subject to constraints to meet QoS (quality of service) requirements. Constraint-based routing with MPLS greatly enhances network utilization and enables ...

Multiprotocol Label Switching or MPLS technology is being increasingly deployed by several of the largest Internet service providers to solve problems such as traffic engineering and to offer IP services like Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). In MPLS, the analysis of the packet (network layer) header is performed just once, and each packet is assigned a stack of labels, which is examined by subs...

The possibility of adding MPLS support to transport networks is considered an important opportunity by telecom carriers that want to add packet services and applications to their networks. However, the question arises whether it is suitable to have MPLS nodes just at the edge of the network to collect packet traffic from users, or to introduce also MPLS facilities on a subset of the core nodes ...

The ongoing growth of e-commerce deliveries has led to a significant increase in last-mile delivery volumes. New technologies are being investigated provide these efficiently and customer-friendly manner. A common practice is use fixed parcel lockers (FPLs) make independent from the presence customer as case attended home (AHDs). FPLs usually installed at key locations cities, customers can col...

Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is an emerging Internet technology that facilitates traffic engineering in service provider networks. This paper considers a network performance optimization problem related to traffic engineering over MPLS. We investigate the issue of dynamic partitioning of MPLS ingress traffic into several parallel Label Switched Paths (LSP). Specifically, we present a st...
