Product Description
MPLS (MultiProtocol Label Switching) is a controversial new protocolthat vastly simplifies Internet traffic and effectively removesobstacles to Voice Over IP applications. Here is the first book tothoroughly explain and evaluate MPLS specifically for the voice markets.
* Explains a potentially disruptive technology for telephony
* Shows providers how to protect their revenues during deployment
* Details key engineering problems such as classes of service, trafficengineering, overlays, and moreCarriers see MPLS as the way to deliverquality of service for voice over IP and over 80% of network traffic inNorth America is projected to be IP-based by the end of 2002. At thatpoint, MPLS will be mandatory.
From the Back Cover
MPLS is many things to many people. If you’re moving IP voice traffic, it may mean performance gains for you.
Daniel Minoli’s Voice Over MPLS gives you the technical andbusiness lowdown on innovative new solutions for packet-based voice.What does it take to build flexible, high-performance networks withenhanced quality of service? Maybe not as much as you think.
RELIABLE VOICE SERVICES THAT CUSTOMERS CAN AFFORD
With VoMPLS, you can deliver the quality associated with VoIP overATM links without the cost in either bandwidth or equipment. Based onlabel-switching standards from the IETF and the work of a number ofleading companies, Voice over MPLS lets you packetize voicewithout the added overhead of IP encapsulation. It also suppressesperiods of silence, freeing up bandwidth for other uses.
From one of the most experienced names in telecom technology, Voice Over MPLS shows you how to–
* Provide multiple, high-quality services without costly leased lines
* Deliver low-bandwidth voice over ATM, Frame Relay, or IP
* Add phone lines without adding equipment
* Solve scaling issues for small- and medium-sized users
* Obtain consistent call quality without crunching bandwidth
* Discover ways to protect revenues during deployment
* Evaluate the potential role of VoMPLS in big-picture convergence
* Evaluate VoMPLS’s impact on public networks
