Mapmaker MPLS diagram suggestions

HI,

I'm trying to find out what's the best way to diagram a WAN that utilizes SPRINT MPLS. Currently we have roughly 10 sites across the US and we are using Sprint's MPLS network for routing between all offices. No sites are point to point since all traffic goes over the MPLS network. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Their service isn't as reliable as ATT but the cost is a lot cheaper.

Dan,

My suggestion is to put a Cloud icon in the middle of your map and label it as MPLS Cloud. If you get any information from the PE routers then place them on the edge of the cloud. Local-Loop to the CE routers then connectivity into the various sites. It will resemble a big hub (MPLS CLOUD) and spoke (PE--CE--Site) network. Then depending on your access to see the VPNs and or provider information you can add hyperlinks and such.

Happy Mapping,
Phillip
