IP/MPLSView™ Design & Planning Suite

IP/MPLSView™ Design & Planning Suite addresses the major areas of network planning including Traffic and Routing Analysis and Simulation, Capacity Planning, Resiliency Analysis and Outage Simulation, and Path Design and Optimization. Our design and optimization algorithms are continually refined based on industry best practices and customer interactions, resulting in what is today the most intelligent and automated system of its kind.


The Modeling Essentials

Every WANDL Design & Planning package comes with Modeling Essentials. These are the most critical elements needed for your network design, analysis, simulation, and optimization.


  • Advanced Network Visualization
  • Multi-Protocol Routing Simulation
  • Resiliency (Fiber-Cut) Simulation
  • "What-If" Simulation and Validation

Practical Uses

  • Predict if the network can survive an outage/fiber cut.
  • Predict if the network can sustain projected near or long term traffic growth.
  • Identify network weak spots.
  • Determine how to expand the network (e.g. where to purchase links) to handle traffic growth.
  • Plan migration strategies that utilize embedded networks.
  • Perform flow analysis.
  • Generate LSP paths for implementation.
  • Calculate network costs, delays, etc.
  • Reduce network costs via superior design and modeling optimization.
  • Plan, design, simulate, and analyze MPLS-TE, FRR, VPN, BGP, CoS, Multicast, and more in your network.

Business Benefits

With the Design & Planning Suite, you can:
  • Reduce Network Costs. Effective designs optimize existing bandwidth and resources, and can result in lower hardware and maintenance costs. CapEx can be delayed until absolutely needed, freeing up funds to be used elsewhere.
  • Promote Productivity and Operational Efficiency through the automation of many tasks including automatic report and topology map generation, as well as LSP path generation. With state-of-the-art IP/MPLSView design engine and heuristics, tasks such as accommodating traffic growth and optimizing the backbone topology are also practically automated.
  • Guard against Unnecessary Risk by assessing the network by performing intelligent Network Health checks. Perform Disaster Planning by running powerful fiber cut simulations and resiliency analyses.
  • Diagnose Performance Problems using IP/MPLSView's flow analysis, bottleneck detection and analysis, peak utilization analysis, discrete event simulation, multicast simulation, etc.
  • Validate Changes Prior to Deployment to accommodate new services, new equipment, and new technologies.
  • Plan for Future Growth using IP/MPLSView's superior capacity planning and data forecasting to fulfill new business plans. Also model and simulate new service revenue models against the existing infrastructure.
