AT&T today introduced an MPLS-based IP VPN service.
The new network-based IP VPN is designed for customers like Allied Electronics, a global distributor of electronic components based in Ft. Worth, Texas, who want an all-IP infrastructure providing direct connectivity to their disparate geographic locations, a wide range of access speeds, reduced networking costs and the capability to expand as their businesses change and grow. As these customers migrate to, or establish, their IP solutions, AT&T's team of VPN specialists helps with their network design, deployment and support to assure a smooth transition.
AT&T Network Based IP VPN service also provides online usage reports via AT&T BusinessDirect, a Web portal that enables customers to perform a variety of network and routine supplier-management tasks.
"These capabilities leverage our leadership in IP networking and VPNs and responds to customer need and demand," said Rose Klimovich, vice president and general manager of AT&T Global VPN Services. "Companies increasingly want to do more of their business on IP, and we're giving them that capability, using MPLS technology to assure security, as well as a platform for running critical applications, such as VoIP, video over IP, security and business continuity."
