MPLS (Multi-Protocol Label Switching) is a type of data-carrying technique for high-performance telecommunications networks. It directs data from one network node to the next based on short path labels rather than long network addresses, allowing for faster and more efficient routing of data. MPLS works by labeling packets of information with a unique MPLS label and then sending them along a predetermined route. At each hop along the route, the label is examined and used to determine the next hop for the packet, until it reaches its final destination. This process makes the network more efficient and secure, as it eliminates the need for each node to look up the entire route for each packet.
