Designing and implementing IP/MPLSs-based ethernet layer 2 VPN services: an advanced guide for VPLS and VLL

A dedicated services model is not cost-efficient for either service providersor customers. Providers have to build multiple network infrastructures to support different networking technologies. Customers with multiple service requirements need to purchase each service separately. As a result of these inefficiencies, service providers start to look for new technologies and equipment which can provide a converged solution using a single backbone network which can serve different customers requirements. This book, Designing and Implementing VPLS over MPLS shows the reader how a Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) run over a Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) based multi-service network fulfills the need of one-network-fits-all, providing customers a significant cost savings. This is what Alcatel-Lucent is rolling out worldwide. No other vendor can offer this cost-savings technology.
