The Idea behind this Talk

• This talk should show some lessons we learned whenimplementing and running a real life MPLS VPN network

• Nextra Switzerland is running a national MPLS VPNnetwork since 2.5 years (Q3 1999)

  • about 30 PoPs, Cisco based

• The Nextra Group is running a pan-European MPLS VPNnetwork since about one year (Q1 2001)

  • present in most European countries
  • provides seamless VPN services between autonomous Nextra companies

• I will not discuss whether MPLS is a good thing or not :-)
