Implementing Cisco MPLS

The Implementing Cisco MPLS training teaches you the high-performance method for forwarding packets through a network, enabling routers at the edge to apply simple labels to packets and switch them with minimal lookup overhead.

Describe the features of MPLS

Describe how MPLS labels are assigned and distributed

Identify Cisco IOS tasks to implement MPLS on frame-mode platforms

Describe the MPLS peer-to-peer architecture and packet forwarding model

Identify Cisco IOS commands to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot VPN operations

Identify how the MPLS VPN model can be used to implement managed services and internet access

Describe various internet access implementations in MPLS environments

Provide an overview of MPLS Traffic Engineering

Network administrators, Network engineers, Network managers, Systems engineers

Recommended: intermediate to advanced knowledge of Cisco IOS Software, EIGRP/OSPF/IS-IS/BGP configuration and troubleshooting.
