COMPREHENSIVE MPLS VPN SOLUTIONS

Meeting the Needs of Emerging Services with Innovative Technology

The VPN market is growing at a record pace worldwide. IDC reports that provider- provisioned VPNs now dominate the VPN services market with VPNs deployed by over half of the multisite companies that have 50 or more employees. The worldwide VPN services market reached $24.4 billion in 2007 and is expected to climb to almost $36 billion in 2012. In the U.S. alone, it is estimated that the VPN market will have a 10.4 percent CAGR increase over the next five years.1

The Challenge

The need to increase revenue while achieving operational efficiency is driving the need for increased multicast traffic, particularly for the growing deployment of voice, video, and collaboration-based applications. For instance, providers with an installed base of Layer 3 VPNs for unicast service are looking to upsell with new media-rich solutions. Numerous services, such as IPTV and financial applications, now demand scalable, reliable, and secure next-generation (NG) multicast VPN (MVPN) solutions. Service providers and cable operators are offering virtual private LAN service (VPLS) to small and medium businesses, as well as to large enterprises. Another growing revenue generator is IPv6 VPNs for new mobile applications. To address these divergent needs and in anticipation of changing environments, you would want to consider implementation flexibility, scalability of service instances, size of route tables deployed, and your ability to extend the service reach.

Multi-Access, Multiprotocol, Multidomain MPLS VPN Solutions

Juniper Networks® supports a full breadth of technologies to deliver diverse services and meet these evolving needs (Figure 1). Juniper’s comprehensive solution set enables service providers, large enterprises, telcos, cable companies, and information-intensive enterprises to cost-efficiently roll out networks that offer scalable control and forwarding planes, continuous service, and feature richness. VPN deployments using Juniper technology are standards-based and securely interwork amongst multiple providers, enabling you to exceed the most stringent service level agreements (SLAs) and resiliency requirements. Common protocols offer a consistent, streamlined operational model, thus reducing overall operating and troubleshooting costs.

Challenge

Meeting the dynamic requirements of rapidly growing, worldwide VPN markets

Solution

• Established service solutions: Next- generation multicast VPNs, VPLS, IPv6 VPNs

• Innovative technology solutions: P2MP LSP, LDP-BGP VPLS interworking

Benefits

• Better operational efficiency • Improved scalability • Enhanced flexibility • Extended service reach

• Minimized service disruption

1VPNs provide numerous services within a variety of delivery models. This wide deployment of VPN services requires the availability of multiple access connectivity options, service reach across protocol and administrative domain boundaries, and support for multiple topologies and traffic profiles. Drivers include consolidations (mergers and acquisitions), interprovider partnerships, and changing end-user requirements based on available access connectivity and protocol options. To meet these dynamic needs, Juniper has created a comprehensive and flexible MPLS VPN toolkit that offers an array of options across multiple parameters.

• Flexible access connectivity options across multiple topologies, protocol and administrative boundaries.

• Scalable control and forwarding planes.

• Maximized bandwidth and network efficiency for multicast with P2MP optimizations for VPLS and multicast VPN.

• Self-contained multihoming mechanisms for highly available edge service nodes.

• Consistent operational model for IPv4, IPv6, unicast, and multicast across L2 and L3 VPNs.

• Simplified operations with reduced template-based configuration, maintenance, and troubleshooting complexity.

• Cost-efficient rollouts with minimal network disruption.
