Multi Protocol Label Switching- MPLS has similar properties of a circuit-switched network over an IP or packet-switched network. MPLS provides organisations with a vast amount of flexibility to redirect traffic around congestion, link failures and bottle-necks. It has the capability to transmit different types of data at the same time as prioritising them according to the importance of speed of delivery. For example on a network with users sending emails & making VOIP calls, the VOIP traffic is prioritised over the email traffic to make sure there is no loss of quality. The Flexibility of MPLS has led to it becoming the default way for modern networks to achieve the Quality of Services, next generation VPN services and optical signalling.
