MPLS network consists of the following components:
- MPLS Virtual Private Networks (VPNs)—These provide the network operators with the option of deploying various value added services like connectionless services, centralized networking and scalable, secure networks.
- Layer 3 VPNs— It is based on Border Gateway Patrol
- Layer 2 VPNs— This includes any Transport over MPLS (AToM)
- MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE)— MPLS allows efficient traffic engineering and provides proper utilization of network bandwidth.
- MPLS Quality of Service (QoS)— MPLS allows the network operators to give preferential treatment to certain types of traffic.
