WAN/IP-VPN's
IP Wide Area Networks
There are two flavors of UK based IP VPN available, managed and
wires only, both give the option of a 6 model COS (class of service).
Wires only will give the network without any CPE (customer premise equipment). This is ideal if you want to use your existing routers or other CPE that you have invested in. Wires only allows you to manage your own network.
Managed gives you the full end-to-end network including the provision, installation, management and maintenance of the routers. The managed network is ideal for many companies who like to leave the management of the network to their chosen provider, leaving them to concentrate their core business.
Both wires-only and managed are available with a 6 tier class
of service (COS), allowing you to prioritise, voice, critical
data and applications. All the IP VPN's are backed with SLA's
and SLG's, giving you piece of mind that your network is in the
capable hands of a tier-one provider.
The bandwidths vary depending on which option you take; they start
from 64k and go beyond 1gig. Flexible bandwidths are also available
on both these offerings, ideal if you are expecting future growth
or operate in a seasonal market, thus allowing you to make one
investment that allows you the flexibility and control.
