Internet architecture and problems in an IP networks are illustrated when different internet protocols are used. Small focus is provides on the demand oriented real time applications and data traffic for QoS parameters in IP and MPLS networks. Evaluation of QoS guarantee parameters such as delay, jitter and throughput are described with state of art study results mainly for real time applications in IP and MPLS networks. Finally MPLS TE implementation and working is described and proposed to achieve better network performance. Keywords: IP network, MPLS network, TE, QoS. 1 Acknowledgement I am very thankful to: • ALL Mighty ALLAH for his greatness for blessing me with health and mind. • My family and friends for helping me during my degree studies and in hard times. • My Telecommunication thesis supervisor Mr. Alexandru Popescu at Department of Telecommunication Systems, Blekinge Tekniska Högskola (BTH), Sweden for providing me this opportunity to complete master degree thesis with complete support and guidance during entire period.
