This document provides an overview of the Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM) toolset for MPLS-based transport networks. The toolset consists of a comprehensive set of fault management and performance monitoring capabilities (operating in the data plane) that are appropriate for transport networks as required in RFC 5860 and support the network and services at different nested lev...

Integration of two technologies, Mobile IP and MPLS has gained popularity now days over dynamic mobile environment. This technology i.e. Mobile MPLS ensures to provide high Quality of service (QoS) along with mobility management. However Mobile MPLS inherits a problem of triangle routing from Mobile IP. Hence this research proposes a technique to improve the route optimization in Mobile MPLS ne...

RFC 3270 defines how to support the Diffserv architecture in MPLS networks, including how to encode Diffserv Code Points (DSCPs) in an MPLS header. DSCPs may be encoded in the EXP field, while other uses of that field are not precluded. RFC 3270 makes no statement about how Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) marking might be encoded in the MPLS header. This document defines how an operator ...

Independent Quality of Service (QoS) models need to be set up in IP and ATM integration and they are difficult to coordinate. This gap is bridged when MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS) is used for this purpose. We propose Guarantee of Service (GoS) to improve performance of privileged flows in congested MPLS networks. We first discuss the GoS requirements for the use in conjunction with MPLS...

Recnetly, the demands of QoS(Quality of Service) and the traffic in network is increased. So, HMPLS(Hierarchical MPLS) network research what guarantees the scalability is in progress. But, the H-MPLS has a problem of increasing of groups and the links of these group's nodes. It happens a problem that is increasing of HMPLS setup cost. In this paper, we setup the H-MPLS groups. We use NS simulat...

Multiprotocol Label Switching technology is an evolving technology that provides the reliable and efficient distribution of the Internet services with high transmission speed and lower delays. The important feature of MPLS network is its Traffic Engineering (TE), which is used to manage the computer network effectively for efficient utilization of network resources such as bandwidth, link utili...

This document describes the applicability of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) to traffic engineering in IP networks. Special considerations for deployment of MPLS for traffic engineering in operational contexts are discussed and the limitations of the MPLS approach to traffic engineering are highlighted. Boyle, et al. Informational [Page 1] RFC 3346 Applicability Statement for Traffic Engin...

Framework for MPLS-TE to GMPLS Migration Status of This Memo This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Abstract The migration from Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) Traffic Engineering (TE) to Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) is the process of evolving an MPLS-TE control plane to a GMPLS co...

Next generation multi-service networks must meet basically two fundamental requirements: Quality of Service (QoS) in an Internet-based context and Traffic Engineering (TE) functionalities. DiffServ-over-MPLS stands for the most reliable solution to fulfill them in a flexible way. Anyway, even if both Diffserv and MPLS technologies have been the subjects of several works, the design and the impl...

This document reviews the Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) protocol suite in the context of IPv6 and identifies gaps that must be addressed in order to allow MPLS-related protocols and applications to be used with IPv6-only networks. This document is intended to focus on gaps in the standards defining the MPLS suite, and is not intended to highlight particular vendor implementations (or lac...
