Global Crossing Announces MPLS-based IP VPN Service

Global Crossing announced an MPLS-based IP VPN Service featuring three classes of service and multiple access options in more than 300 cities in 52 countries. Global Crossing has offered both IPSec-based and an MPLS-based IP VPN services since October 2001. The new service integrates the two in a single management platform. Three classes of service -- Basic, Enhanced or Premium -- are backed by Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that include latency, packet loss, jitter and availability. In addition, Global Crossing IP VPN Service provides users with integrated Layer-2 and Layer-3 capabilities supporting High Level Data Link Control (HDLC), Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP), frame relay, ATM and Ethernet encapsulations. Global Crossing IP VPN Service can be combined with the Global Crossing Remote Access Service using the tunnel or gateway reservation model, single loop Dedicated Internet Access or Secure Internet Access. The network supports the ability to exchange routes using Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), Routing Information Protocol (RIP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) and static over connections at speeds from 64 Kbps up to OC48/STM 16.
