Unified MPLS is a scalable architecture designed for service provider networks to streamline MPLS deployments across multiple domains while maintaining end-to-end simplicity. It enables seamless interconnection between access, aggregation, and core networks using a hierarchical approach with seamless MPLS.
Key technologies include LDP and BGP for label distribution, route reflectors for scalable control plane management, and inter-area LSP stitching to maintain optimal forwarding paths.
By leveraging Unified MPLS, service providers can enhance network efficiency, reduce operational complexity, and support next-generation services such as mobile backhaul, VPNs, and carrier Ethernet with minimal latency and high reliability.
