NETWORKING · MPLS VPN

One overlay across all your sites — with the QoS classes you actually need.

L3VPN (RFC 4364) and VPLS / EVPN VPNs over our Punjab MPLS core. Any-to-any reachability between branch offices, data centres and partner DMZs, with six QoS classes and per-site traffic-engineering controls.

OVERVIEW

A private network that scales past two sites.

When you have three or more sites that need to talk to each other, point-to-point circuits stop being sensible — every new site means a new circuit, a new routing decision, and a fresh fight with the firewall team. An MPLS VPN solves that by giving you a single overlay where every site is one BGP hop away from every other, with route distribution handled by us and policy controlled by you.

On our network, L3VPNs run as RFC 4364 BGP/MPLS VPNs with route targets and route distinguishers per customer. L2VPNs are delivered as VPLS (RFC 4761/4762) for multipoint, PWE3 for point-to-point, and EVPN where customers are looking for active / active MAC-mobility. Six QoS classes are available end-to-end, and per-site bandwidth profiles let you size the access link independently of the VPN's total reach.

USE CASES

The kind of networks that live on this.

01

Bank branch network

30–300 branches across Punjab on a single L3VPN, with a strict EF class for ATM transactions and a separate AF for video.

02

Multi-DC enterprise core

Two production DCs, one DR, and a handful of regional offices on a hub-and-spoke L3VPN with VRF leaks where needed.

03

Government / public-sector network

Provincial agencies on a closed VPN with strict route-target isolation and a centralised, audited internet break-out.

04

Voice carrier overlay

VoIP carrier with media gateways across Lahore, Multan and Islamabad, on a VPLS instance with PDV-controlled EF class.

05

Wholesale carrier extending reach

Other ISPs/LDIs riding our MPLS to extend their own VPN service into Punjab without separate point-to-point builds.

06

Operational tech (OT) network

Manufacturing operator separating IT and OT traffic on different VRFs, with no inter-VRF route leakage by policy.

DEPLOYMENT

Bringing an MPLS VPN up.

  1. 01

    Topology design

    Day 0 – 7. Sites, capacities, routing protocol, QoS budget. We deliver an LLD before signing.

  2. 02

    PE config + access

    Day 7 – 25. VRFs, route targets, access ports per site. CE devices brought up if managed.

  3. 03

    Routing burn-in

    Day 25 – 32. BGP / OSPF stabilised, advertised prefixes verified, QoS marking checked end-to-end.

  4. 04

    Cutover + monitoring

    Day 32 – 40. Live cutover per site (rollback ready), portal access handed over, monthly SLA review scheduled.

FAQ

Pre-sales questions we hear.

When do I want L3VPN vs VPLS?
L3VPN if you need any-to-any IP routing and the sites have non-overlapping subnets. VPLS if you need a single broadcast domain across sites — typically because of legacy non-routable protocols, dual-attached firewalls, or an existing campus design. EVPN gets you the best of both for greenfield builds.
Do you offer managed CE?
Yes. We can provide and manage the CE router (typically a small Cisco / Juniper / Mikrotik depending on capacity) or work alongside your team if you prefer to own the CE.
What internet break-out options do you offer?
Centralised break-out from one or two of your sites (preferred for security teams), distributed break-out from every site, or hybrid with route-table-based selection. All are configured at the VRF.
Can the VPN extend off-net?
Yes. We extend via inter-AS option-A or option-B with peer carriers for sites outside our footprint. Most commonly used for Sindh and KP sites where another LDI presents.
How is QoS enforced?
At the access PE on ingress (policed) and on the CE port towards the customer on egress (shaped). We trust DSCP / 802.1p markings inside customer traffic by default; if you'd prefer we re-mark on ingress against a published policy, we can do that too.
What about IPv6?
L3VPN supports IPv6 (6VPE) with the same VRF. VPLS is layer-2 so IPv6 just rides over it.
Do you support route reflection or partial mesh?
All sites are full-mesh from the customer's perspective; route reflection happens inside our backbone and is invisible to you. Partial-mesh / hub-spoke at the customer level is enforced via export-map or route-target filtering.

A list of sites and a topology preference is enough to start.

Tell us how many sites, the rough capacity per site and what your QoS picture looks like. We'll come back with an LLD, a price, and a per-site latency table.
