 What is CPAN?
Convergent Packet Access Network (CPAN) is
designed to work between access and core network.
CPAN switches aggregate voice, video, and data (any
type of traffic STM1, Ethernet, IP,ATM) from access
network and hands over it to the core (IP-
MPLS/OTN).

CPAN equipment has high capacity and works in ring

topology to provide protection to the traffic.

CPAN is MPLS-TP based Converged Packet Access

Network Equipment.

It is connection oriented

 MPLS-TP Evolution

• MPLS-TP objectives:
– Enable MPLS to be deployed in a transport network and operated
in a similar manner to existing transport technologies
(SONET/SDH)
– Enable MPLS to support packet transport services with a similar
degree of predictability and reliability to that found in
existing transport networks
– MPLS-TP extensions are fully compatible with existing MPLS
specifications and newly defined protocols are included in IETF

 MPLS-TP Evolution

In an MPLS network, LSPs are unidirectional,

meaning traffic from source to destination and
destination to source follow different paths.

In contrast, an MPLS-TP network works

congruently—that is, the paths traverse every
segment of the network in both directions,
making an MPLS-TP LSP deterministic, which
allows for easier fulfillment of Service Level
Agreements (SLAs).

 MPLS-TP Evolution

With congruent paths, MPLS-TP enables

communication back to the source. In addition to
congruency, there are other differences between
MPLS and MPLS-TP.

MPLS-TP applies constraints while eliminating some

of the complex functions that make networks
unpredictable and non-deterministic, including:

• Penultimate Hop Popping (PHP)

• LSP merge
• Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) routing

© BHARAT SANCHAR NIGAM LIMITED Slide No. 7 of 58

 MPLS-TP Evolution

MPLS-TP addresses deficiencies in MPLS,

providing carrier-class QoS, protection and
restoration (sub 50ms), and OAM, by using
deterministic methods to set up static LSPs that
are congruent with predefined backup paths.

MPLS-TP uses Generalized MPLS (GMPLS) to

utilize efficient forwarding using label switching,
allowing deterministic and connection-oriented
behavior, which makes it dependable.

 MPLS-TP Evolution

• MPLS-TP provides carrier-grade OAM for LSPs and

PWs, which is the transport profile that gives MPLS-
TP its name. With MPLS-TP, OAM is carried with the
user traffic, ensuring faster trouble shooting and
predicable carrier-grade performance.
• Management Plane setup
– MPLS needs routing protocols & LDP to set up LSPs
– LSPs in MPLS-TP can be setup without the use of control
plane purely through the management plane
