Study of MPLS over ATM Network

MPLS is high lightened as the most promising technology for the ATM backbone network. This MPLS improves in reducing the traffic in the network and increases the bandwidth. ATM switch network for the fast Internet services which makes use of virtual network for switching between routers by adding a layer 3 routing module to the existing ATM network and can provide scalable Internet services to users with various service levels. This paper presents an implementation of MPLS for an ATM network on FPGA which replaces the virtual circuits by use of labels in the network.
