folks,
I have a small branch office (greenfield) and we want to connect it to our HQ via the MPLS line
the site will have 100 users/PCs
what Cisco router can I use to connect that branch office to HQ via MPLS?
Thanks,

Hello!
You will nedd at least 2x 48port switches + an router. The router should be based on your throughput and complexity of deployment.
I would say you can go with C8200 series. Use also DNA-A licenses because of MPLS, and the tiering based on your crypto throughput needs.

What's the bandwidth?
Actual hand-off will be MPLS? I.e. you'll need to deal with MPLS labels?

100mbps MPLS line, i m not sure about complexity of the configure, but let s assume i m going to deal with MPLS labels(worst case hhh) what do you recommend ?

Any projected need for remote site LAN routing and/or WAN bandwidth increases?
WAN hand-off Ethernet, correct?
BTW, for 100 Mbps, many contemporary "small" routers can handle that, but handling MPLS, directly, might up the cost a lot.
