remote access services over fixed or wireless connectivity, and many other Wide Area Network services, such as Frame Relay

our core network
- Provider (P) routers are the core routers used to interconnect every IP VPN POP. Our P routers are connected using OC-48 wavelengths or packet over SONET (POS).
- The resiliency in the core of network is built using MPLS Traffic Engineering Fast Reroute sub 50ms restoration of traffic in a failure event.
- P routers are Cisco Gigabit Switch Routers (12416).
our edge network
- Provider edge (PE) routers are locally connected to P routers using Packet over Sonet (155 Mbps to 622 Mbps). PE routers are the extremities or edge of the network where customers are physically connected. Customer VPNs are configured at the PE routers.
- PE routers are also bi-connected to P routers at diverse POP locations for redundancy. So if a local segment or P router fails, the PE router maintains connectivity via a backup link to a diverse POP.
- PE routers are a mix of Cisco Edge Switch Routers (10008) and Cisco 7500 Series Routers.
