By providing this service, the ITC (Information Technology Company of Iran) has the capability to provide connection via intranet networks between two or more points that are requested by the customer.
By connecting the two ends of this connection to network switches and computers, the customer can create a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) between two points.
This connection uses the OSI model in layer 3 and the TCP/IP protocol in the network layer.
The benefits MPLS are:
1- Multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) was invented to solve the problem of bridging multiple disparate protocols such as Frame Relay, ATM and Ethernet.
2- Fundamentally, MPLS employs an encapsulation technique providing internetworking between different technologies, coupled with signaling protocols necessary to discover, configure and manage connectivity.
3- In addition to signaling protocols, MPLS uses resiliency protocols, such as Fast Re-route and Bi-directional Fault Detection, to determine failures and in turn switching to standby links.
4- MPLS combines the multi-service and traffic management capabilities of ATM with the scalability of packet networks to create a best-of-breed service provider network.
The number of connection points (peers) in IP-MPLS connections, range from several to several hundred points.
In a VPN/MPLS connection it is assumed that Full Mesh topology is used between the client’s connection points, therefore in this topology all points can connect to each other with out the need for a central routing system.
In this method, by requesting the required infrastructure from your city’s telecommunication center and acquiring a modem, your connection can be established.
