Are carrier networks in India fit for IP VPN?
Yes, and we are providing IPSec MPLS VPN services to mission-critical customers in almost every vertical by using the infrastructure of long-distance service providers. How does MPLS facilitate IP-based VPNs? IP MPLS VPN is the best mix of Layer 2 and Layer 3. MPLS VPNs is globally acknowledged by many (including Cisco and Juniper) to be the most secure, fast and next-generation VPN technology. One of the features in MPLS that contributes to its speed and security is that there is a unique label (and hence cannot be spoofed unlike IP header) for every packet transmitted. This label is checked only at the service provider edge routers unlike IP header analysis happening at every hop which made an IP VPN relatively less secure and also slower. IPsec over MPLS would therefore offer layered security and is acknowledged by many service providers worldwide to be the most secure VPN option in data transmission today. The potential customers for IPSec MPLS VPNs… These would be mission- and b
