Multiprotocol label switching (MPLS), originating in IPv4, was initially proposed to
improve forwarding speed. Its core technology can be extended to multiple
network protocols, such as IPv6, internet packet exchange (IPX), and
connectionless network protocol (CLNP). That is what the term multiprotocol
means.
MPLS integrates both Layer 2 fast switching and Layer 3 routing and forwarding,
satisfying the networking requirements of various new applications.
