- MPLS, Only Better
- MPLS (multi-protocol label switching) is a relatively new technology that can improve network performance for select traffic. In the typical network without MPLS, packet paths are determined in real time as routers decide each packet’s appropriate next hop. However, conventional IP routing requires time and eliminates opportunity to influence packets’...
