Hello,
Yes our core is running MPLS. We us Mikrotik routers so it does not
coast use a huge amount. They also have anew virtual router that allows you
to take 1 box and put 2 or more routers on it. We have a MPLS core router
and a Edge router at each main tower on our ring. This did save use a about
50% because we did not have to buy the second router.
Thanks

Hi Nathan,
it could be a solution, but:
1) the only product I found interesting it CISCO ME switch with MPLS.
Any other suggestion welcome.
2) cost per site goes really high for the backbone. If we would like to
implement MPLS in each site, it would cost us a fortune.
3) Still wondering about maturity or many MPLS implementations, not sure
the brands that really work and the ones which does not.
Suggestions welcome ;)
P.S. are you using MPLS?
