![]() Many different headers can map to the same label, as long as those headers always result in the same choice of next hop. The Layer 3 header is then mapped into a fixed length, In label switching, the analysis of the Layer 3 header is done only once. In addition, a complicated table lookup must also be done at each router. As a result, the header analysis must be done independently at each router through which ![]() In the most common case, the only relevant field in the header is the destination address field, but in some cases, other To determine the next hop for the packet. This information is then used as an index for a routing table lookup Relevant to forwarding the packet from the Layer 3 header. In conventional Layer 3 forwarding mechanisms, as a packet traverses the network, each router extracts all the information The scalability, flexibility, and performance of network layer (Layer 3) High-performance packet forwarding technology that integrates the performanceĪnd traffic management capabilities of data link layer (Layer 2) switching with In the Cisco IOS XE Release 16.x, the ASR 1000 routers only support fragmentation of the MPLS packets from the IP to MPLS By incorporating MPLS into their networkĪrchitecture, service providers can save money, increase revenue and productivity, provide differentiated services, and gain Routes between a source and a destination on a purely router-based Internet backbone. MPLS efficiently enables the delivery of IP services over an ATM switched network. Is offered for all Layer 3 protocols, and scaling is possible well beyond that typically offered in today’s networks. The MPLS architecture is flexible and can be employed in any combination of Layer 2 technologies. Growth in network utilization while providing the opportunity to differentiate services without sacrificing the existing network MPLS enables service providers to meet the challenges of explosive The proven scalability of Layer 3 (network layer) routing. Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) combines the performance and capabilities of Layer 2 (data link layer) switching with Feature Information for MPLS on Cisco Routers.This document is a companion to other feature modules describing other MPLS applications.
