StableNet management for MPLS, MetroE and Carrier Ethernet provides visibility into Layer 2 and Layer 3 MPLS and VPLS deployments. Leveraging topology and LSP path information collected via SNMP, StableNet can manage MPLS/VPLS deployments including MP-iBGP and End-to-End path monitoring.

StableNet has native support for common edge devices such as Cisco, Juniper, Redback and others without the need for manual intervention or programming of correlation rules.

StableNet Telco can manage MPLS, MetroE and mixed networked in multi-vendor environments. It helps you to remove performance bottlenecks by optimal utilization of network resources.

StableNet supports the following technologies:

• Layer 2 based on Internet draft draft-kompella-l2ppvpn-version, MPLS-based Layer 2 VPNs.
• Layer 3 based on Internet draft draft-ietf-l3vpn-rfc2547bis, BGP and MPLS IP VPNs. (aka VRFs)
• VPLS based on Internet draft draft-ietf-ppvpn-vpls-bgp, Virtual Private LAN Service. (aka Pseudo Wire)
  
• 802.1ah Provider Backbone Bridges
• 802.1ag Connectivity Fault Management
• QinQ Provider Bridging (802.1ad)
  
• Others ...

Feature	Advantage	Benefit
VPN Auto-Discovery	Auto-Detects Layer 2 and Layer 3 VPNs at PE routers and the LSPs across the LSRs. Automatically discovers OSFP, MP-iBGP and VLAN trunks.	Auto-populate your CMBD with the actually deployed VPNs from our routers. Cut support time to a minimum.
Network Visualization	Graphically displays VPN topologies per customer and/or per technology.	See the connectivity and status of elements in a graphical topology display.
Root-Cause and Impact analysis	Tracks the cause of a VPN End-to-End failure down to the LSR where the problem occurs	Provides ability to associated VPNs with customers to see customer and service impact to priorities NOC activities.
Multi-Vendor Support	Works with a number of different hardware vendors including Cisco and Juniper.	Improved scalability and flexibility in cross-domain and multi-vendor deployments.
