From IPSEC to MPLS and Ethernet WAN
How companies modernize their network
An IP VPN is a virtual private network that is based on a shared IP BaMany company networks have grown historically and are now slowed down by high latency and complex management. SAVECALL accompanies the migration to modern solutions with a clear structure and greater efficiency.ckbone of a telecommunications provider. It uses MPLS technology and enables companies to achieve secure and cost-efficient Site Connectivity without their own physical lines.
In a nutshell:
- From IPSEC to MPLS: one carrier instead of many, less effort, more security
- From MPLS to Ethernet: Layer 2 design for lower costs and more control
- Advantages: Simplification, optimized SLAs, cost savings, flexible scaling
- Decision: MPLS for managed networks, Ethernet for in-house IT expertise
SAVECALL plans and implements corporate networks that reduce costs, increase performance and remain globally scalable.

Support
Customers very often contact us because their existing IP-Sec or MPLS network no longer optimally meets their requirements. We are commissioned with the redesign and migration. This often results in a migration path from IPSEC to MPLS and MPLS to Ethernet. In today’s guest article, we discuss this topic with Marc Gebhardt, Product Expert at 1&1 Versatel, and present prototype example networks.
From IPSec to MPLS
Many smaller company networks have grown historically and are often still based on IPSec connections. Low QoS and unfulfillable SLAs, high latencies, complex firewall management and the tedious management of many local carriers lead to dissatisfaction. In the video we show you a more complex IPSec VPN, which is considerably simplified by an MPLS with a one-carrier strategy. The result: cost savings, reduction of internal support effort, higher security.
From MPLS to Ethernet WAN
Even though MPLS is a simple and secure way to network a company, many customers contact us for whom Layer 2-based Ethernet Site Connectivity is more suitable. In the video we show you a more complex MPLS network that is being converted to a Layer 2 Ethernet network. It has been simplified to minimize costs and IT management effort.
Conclusion
Whether an MPLS or Ethernet WAN is the better solution for your Site Connectivity depends entirely on your particular situation. In addition to the number of locations, countries, bandwidth and flexibility requirements, the network management skills available in the company also play a role. If you prefer the network to be fully managed, foreign locations do not require too much bandwidth and latency times are not extremely critical, an MPLS can be a good all-round solution. If you have a strong IT department, high bandwidth requirements, latency-critical applications and would like to manage both the network and, if necessary, more than one carrier abroad yourself, an Ethernet network may be recommended. Savecall’s experts will be happy to help you analyze, plan and implement your perfect corporate network with a focus on manageability, cost optimization and the best possible SLAs and QoS for any business situation.
