MPLS Manager correlates physical-transport failures or BGP failures with MPLS, L2VPN, and L3VPN impairments to identify MPLS impacts.

MPLS Manager also correlates periodic remote ping failures with Layer 3 VPN impairments to identify MPLS impacts, as described in Chapter 5, “Remote Ping Functionality.”

And lastly, MPLS Manager correlates MPLS failures, themselves, with MPLS, L2VPN, and L3VPN impairments to identify MPLS impacts.

MPLS Manager creates an impact event notification for each calculated impact. Notifications are imported by the Global Manager and displayed in the Global Console.
