Jeff Doyle and Chris Summers, Juniper
A half-day, interactive tutorial that discusses and demonstrates the
interaction between MPLS and the traditional IP routing protocols. The
tutorial begins by examining the general requirements for traffic
engineering and then presents how specific features of MPLS address these
requirements. The tutorial then proceeds to address how advanced features
of MPLS work in conjunction with BGP and the IGP (IS-IS or OSPF) to
control network traffic.
During the tutorial, the presenters will augment the lecture material by
demonstrating various MPLS features including the signaling of LSPs with
RSVP, mapping routes to LSPs, configuring LSPs for transit and local
traffic, and enabling advanced traffic protection features.
Topics to be covered include:
- Signaling LSPs with RSVP
- Constraint-based traffic engineering
- Extensions to IS-IS and OSPF
- Traffic Engineering Database
- Strict and loose routing
- Administrative groups (a.k.a. Colors)
- Hot-standby and Fast Reroute LSPs
- Applications and advanced features
