DESCRIPTION:
Each design study chapter delivers four elements. The chapters conclude with a summary of the lessons that can be drawn from the design study so that all types of service providers and large enterprise MPLS architects can adapt aspects of the design solution to their unique network environment and objectives. Although network architects have many resources for seeking information on the concepts and protocols involved with MPLS, there is no single resource that illustrates how to design a network that optimizes their benefits for a specific operating environment. Definitive MPLS Network Designs fills this void. “This book comes as a boon to professionals who want to understand the power of MPLS and make full use of it.”-Parantap Lahiri, Manager
Prior to joining Cisco, he worked for several telecom carriers in France and Australia on the development of enhanced services on ATM, Frame Relay, SMDS, and IP. Jean-Philippe Vasseur is Cisco Distinguished Engineer where he works on IP/MPLS architecture specifications, focusing on IP, TE, and network recovery. During the last eight years at Cisco®, and previously at IBM,
Next, a series of design studies is presented, each based on a specific hypothetical network representative of service provider and enterprise networks running MPLS. They open with a description of the network environment, including the set of supported services, the network topology, the POP structure, the transmission facilities, the basic IP routing design, and possible constraints.

Case Studies and Straw Men A. Sardella Why is MPLS being implemented so widely? To get your arms around this, you need to divide the question somewhat, and take a look at the different flavors of service providers and carriers that are building MPLS networks. In Definitive MPLS Network Designs, the authors have created strawmen for an Interexchange Carrier (USCom), a National Telco (Telecom Kingland), a Global Service Provider (Globenet), and a monstrously large enterprise (EuroBank-which seems to have swallowed up so many other European banks as to be a kind of virtual service provider in its own right).All four of these mythical entities build Layer 3 MPLS serv. The New WAN Network Your organization has grown and the simple wide area network (WAN) you are responsible for and familiar with needs to grow to support the needs of that change. Now the WAN is preparing to enter the next generation technology and expand from either a simple point to point and point to multipoint environment to a global diverse cloud environment and you are tasked to learn about this new technology and implement it. Most likely you are in the networking team and/or the architecture group within your organization and it is your job to do this and do it right the first time.The amount of information on new WAN technologies is en. Stephen B Morris said Excellent Book. This book cuts through the hype surrounding MPLS and gets to the core of the subject. Readers can confidently expect to gain a broad yet detailed overview of this extremely important topic without needing to read other books and RFCs. It presents a one-stop-shop showing how MPLS is being deployed today in real networks of various sizes.What interested me about the book is the way Cisco has fashioned its technology in such a way that it can replace the legacy technologies.If you want to see the direction of network technology, then read this book!
