Meenakshisundaram.r, Albert Rabara.s, Amutha.j, Daisy Premila Bai.t . An Integrated IP-MPLS Architecture for Next Generation Networks. International Journal of Computer Applications. 104, 3 ( October 2014), 25-29. DOI=10.5120/18183-9078
Next Generation Networks (NGN) is a strategy to achieve the vision of next-generation services for the delivery of quad play data, voice and video anywhere and anytime virtually across any access technology. It integrates the services of 2G/3G/4G Networks including IPv4 and IPv6 and incorporates the services of traditional networks into a single service platform with the usage of Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS). Much work has been reported by researchers to integrate MPLS technology into IP networks. But, not much progress has been made so far. In this paper, a novel integrated IP-MPLS Architecture is proposed, which provides IP-integration, end-to-end quality of service, security, scalability, resiliency, and management enhancements for deploying data, voice, and video services. Test bed has been established for testing the performance of the proposed architecture.
