IP VPN
In general an IP-VPN uses public Internet lines in one of several unique fashions to create a virtual private network. The VPN can operate between branches, regional centers and field representatives via a set of software and hardware protocols that authenticate users and encrypt traffic.
Some companies use intranets or extranets to facilitate ‘private’ communication. These protocols involve password-protected pages or sites that only employees and authorized personnel can access. However, connections between remote users and host servers are not always encrypted, and intranets and extranets are not technically private networks.
The alternate answer is a VPN.
A VPN is expandable, much more cost-effective than a traditional WAN, connects field operators, international offices, affiliated partners or clients, and improves productivity. Assuming care is taken to build a secure VPN, it is a highly beneficial step that can be a tremendous asset to any company with networking needs.
MPLS
Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) is one of the central elements of next generation networks. It provides an IP-compatible, QoS-capable infrastructure that enables the convergence of voice, IP, ATM, Ethernet, and Frame Relay onto the same backbone network (Data Connection)
MPLS is a versatile solution to address the problems faced by present-day networks-speed, scalability, quality-of-service (QoS) management, and traffic engineering. MPLS has emerged as an elegant solution to meet the bandwidth-management and service requirements for next-generation IP-based backbone networks.
