During Isocore’s MPLS interoperability test round in March 2003, Ixia provided Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) testing expertise. VPLS enables a private corporate Ethernet network to be extended over a provider managed IP or MPLS infrastructure. The Isocore test round demonstrated VPLS as well as Layer 2 Martini interoperability among a number of major equipment suppliers.
