1. End to End Service Restoration
End to End Service Restoration By Kireeti Kompella and Hannes Gredler Content Disclaimer Executive Summary Packet based transport solutions have arrived at the edge of the network. Historically, this part of the network has been built using SONET/SDH or ATM technology. The economics of packet based networks will make both SONET/SDH and ATM obsolete in the network build outs to come. Whenever you introduce a new technology into a network, you must retain the benefits of the technology it is
2. Seamless MPLS
Seamless MPLS Written by Kireeti Kompella and Roger Wenner Content Disclaimer Abstract Just when you thought that Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) has peaked, that the pace of innovation has slowed and that MPLS is getting (gasp!) boring, two promising new developments, namely “MPLS in the access” and “Seamless MPLS”, bring fresh excitement to Service Provider networks. MPLS in the access is evolutionary, but a necessary prerequisite to Seamless MPLS, which has the potential to
