Explain the purpose of several miscellaneous MPLS features.Explain how extended admin groups can be used to influence path selection.Describe how SRLG changes the CSPF algorithm when computing the path of a secondary LSP.Describe the operation and configuration of LDP loop-free alternate.Describe the operation and configuration of link and node protection.Describe the operation and configuration of fast reroute.Explain the use of primary and secondary LSPs.Describe the default traffic protection behavior of RSVP-signaled LSPs.Describe administrative groups and how they can be used to influence path selection.Describe the Constrained Shortest Path First (CSPF) algorithm, its uses, and its path selection process.Explain the Interior Gateway Protocol (IGP) extensions used to build the Traffic Engineering Database (TED).
Describe the default Junos OS MPLS traffic engineering behavior.Select and configure the appropriate label distribution protocol for a given set of requirements.Configure and verify RSVP-signaled and LDP-signaled LSPs.Describe the functionalities and operation of RSVP and LDP.
Describe the configuration and verification of MPLS forwarding.Explain the MPLS label operations (push, pop, swap) and the concept of label-switched path (LSP).Describe the history and rationale for MPLS, as well as its basic terminology.Course ObjectivesĪfter successfully completing this course, you should be able to: This course benefits individuals responsible for configuring and monitoring devices running the Junos OS.
The concepts are put into practice with a series of in-depth hands-on labs, which will allow participants to gain experience in configuring and monitoring MPLS on Junos OS devices. Special emphasis is given to the central topics of traffic engineering and MPLS traffic protection, including fast reroute, link/node protection, and LDP Loop-Free Alternate. After introducing concepts such as MPLS forwarding and the structure of the MPLS header, the course will delve into the configuration and operation of the two main label distribution protocols, RSVP and LDP. This two-day course is designed to provide students with a solid foundation on Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS).
It is up to each student to obtain the simulator/emulator of their choice to study along with this course.Schedule: Click for Schedule and Registration Course Overview The Cisco Packet Tracer and/or VIRAL (Virtual Internet Routing Lab) are Cisco proprietary softwaresand can only be obtained through Cisco. It is the students responsibility to have these to practice with.
We will also learn how to create VRF's in order to make all this possible, as well as understand the CEF, LFIB, LRIB and much more tables in order to troubleshoot MPLS.ĭISCLAIMER: Please note that the simulators/emulators used in this course arenot part of the course. We will definitely be creating Provider Edge routers Customer Edge Routers and have customers within the same company communicate with each other and different companies also be able to communicate with each other through VPN. We will be creating multiple types of VPNs and through the use for Route Targets and Route Reflectors, we'll demonstrate how packets can be manipulated in a particular direction.
Using the hands on lab we will get to see how these labels get forwarded and we will be configuring multiple IGP routing protocols along with BGP to get information across our network. We will discuss the LDP protocol, what labels are and how they get forward it to other LDR Routers. We will be discussing why MPLS was implemented, the terminology used in an MPLS environment, the configurations used in MPLS, concentrating in using Layer 3 VPNs. In this course we will cover all the fundamentals of MPLS. Also this course will help you understand the concepts needed for your CCNP and CCIE certifications purposes.
