MPLS-TP stands for "Multiprotocol Label Switching".
MPLS-TP is one of the central elements of next generation networks. It provides an IP-compatible, QoS-capable infrastructure that enables the convergence of voice, IP, ATM, Ethernet, and Frame Relay onto the same backbone network. MPLS can combine the intelligence and salability of routing with the reliability and manageability of traditional carrier networks. It is the key to scalable virtual private networks (VPNs) and end-to-end quality of service (QoS).
This course provides an in-depth study of MPLS technology, including MPLS theory and configuration, network design issues, case studies, operations, VPN, Traffic Engineering and GMPLS (Generalized MPLS-TP).
After successfully completing this course, attendees will:
List the features, functions and benefits of MPLS-TP
Identify suitable applications for MPLS-TP
Describe the underlying concepts of MPLS-TP
Describe the frame-mode MPLS-TP and cell-mode MPLS-TP
Describe the concept of MPLS-TP labels, label stack and different label formats
Describe the label distribution process between LSRs
Describe the loop detection and prevention mechanism in MPLS-TP.
Explore the future trends of MPLS-TP
General understanding of data networking concepts is recommended
Participants should have worked or have knowledge about networking and Protocols and its equipment.
This course is designed for Telecom Professionals looking to broaden their knowledge in the MPLS-TP (Advance)
