Wipro VPLS solution enhances
the edge router functionality with an integrated
L2-L3 standard compliant protocol suite engineered
for reliability and portability across multiple
router platforms. Wipro’s VPLS solution
integrates MPLS and IP Routing with Wipro’s
Ethernet components which make it ideal for OEM
vendors and chipset vendors looking at incorporating
VPLS service into their offerings in a short timeframe.
The VPLS solution is available on the Intel IXP
2400 NP platform and can be ported to any target
platform of the customer's choice.
Features:
 |
LDP
for creation and maintenance of pseudo wires. |
 |
RSVP-TE
for creation of tunnels. |
 |
OSPF-TE
to exchange route information in Provider
network. |
 |
Centralized
Routing Management. |
 |
Centralized
Label resource Management. |
 |
Call Admission
and Resource management. |
 |
EoMPLS with
802.1q priority tagging. |
 |
Clean and
well designed APIs for easy integration with
management applications |
 |
Enhanced multipoint-to-multipoint
LAN connectivity across metro area networks.
|
 |
Solution developed
in IXP2400 based Network Processor for maximum
flexibility and wire-line speed |
 |
Built on Intel
IXA Portability Framework |
 |
Well defined
control and data path functionalities |
 |
In house developed
Xscale Linux kernel and tool chain. |
 |
Well defined
table mirroring layer which makes control
plane protocols independent of the platform. |
 |
Well defined
interface mirroring layer which emulates Ethernet
network driver interface for control plane. |
 |
Supports EoMPLS
packet switching in data path constituting
802.1d switching, MPLS forwarding and IPv4
forwarding. |
 |
Administrative
friendly interface for managing the CEs that
are part of the VPN. |
