The Tiscali network has achieved the Cisco Powered Network (CPN) designation for IPVPN - Data Services
Tiscali’s Core network is Cisco Centric. To develop our QoDSL service Tiscali Network architects worked hand in hand with Cisco Technical Architects to re-engineer the Tiscali MPLS core network of MGX ATM switch technology and Cisco 7200s to deploy the latest Cisco 10000 architecture. Following this optimal deployment of the Cisco hardware, and working in conjunction with Tiscali’s network management capability, this new architecture performs the following key functions - VP Shaping, VC Grooming (ensuring maximum use of incoming STM-1s) and to control fair use policy to provide effective traffic management. Tiscali’s Cisco centric network provides bi-directional QoDSL (both upstream and downstream).
Additionally Tiscali have worked with Cisco to ensure that our QoDSL service is compatible with a range of their CPE products. Many of Tiscali’s Business Partners are also Cisco Gold Certified Partners.
