Course Pre-requisites
The candidate attending the course should have knowledge of Routing Protocols (OSPF/IS-IS and BGP/MP- BGP) & IP Routing.
Course Summary
- MPLS Architecture
- Label Distribution Protocol (LDP)
- MPLS Label Switching Routers (LSR)
- MPLS Applications
- Traffic Engineering over MPLS
- Generalized Multiprotocol Label Switching (GMPLS) Scalability
- MPLS Management
- Layer2 Transport over MPLS
After attending this program, you should be able to
- Thoroughly understand the architecture of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)
- Identify the functional capabilities of MPLS that are required to implement an efficient and reliable operational network
- Explain how network resources can be utilized to enhance traffic performance characteristics
- Indentify how the MPLS Architecture enables the use of ATM and Frame Relay switches to be used within the network as Label Switching Routers (LSR)
- Discuss how MPLS encapsulation can be used when transmitting labeled packets within ATM networks
- Explain how Label Stack Encoding uses specific rules, techniques and procedures to process labeled packets
- Recognize and address the security aspects that are relevant in the context of MPLS and GMPLS by describing the security threats and related defensive techniques
- Understand the fundamental concept in MPLS that Label Switching Routers (LSR) must agree on the meaning of the labels used to forward traffic between and through them – achieved by using the Label Distribution Protocol (LDP)
- Describe the management architecture for MPLS and indicate the interrelationships between the different MIB modules used for MPLS network management.
