The wonderful world of MPLS

Over the last few months, I have been studying for the Cisco MPLS exam, and it has been a lot of fun.  I already had an idea of MPLS from my ISCW study, but going into more depth and seeing how MPLS operates was a good experience.  Over the next few days, I will post blogs on what I would call the “high” points for MPLS, along with some configuration documentation and configuration videos.  I am going to break it down into the following;

  • What is MPLS
  • LDP, TDP, LSR, LSP, oh my!
  • Basic MPLS Configuration
  • Why MPLS VPNs are amazing
  • MPLS VPN Configuration
  • Why do I need to engineer my MPLS traffic

I hope you enjoy what I will post as much as I enjoyed learning about it.
