Private Networks (VPNs) provides the security
along with the protocols like IPSec.
This paper addressed the problems of existing
networks mainly IP networks and how service
providers can overcome them by deploying the
MPLS in their backbone. There is greater scope for
improvements in this technology and more features
could be embedded. We intend to refine the
architecture and continue our developments efforts.
