MPLS by Bruce S Davie
An introduction to the underlying design principles of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). It explains how MPLS evolved, examines its benefits and applications, and helps readers to evaluate MPLS as a potential solution for their networking needs.
Written by two of the foremost experts on the subject who illustrate concepts with practical examples of their applicationThe most authoritative text on MPLS. Highly Recommended! -Daniel Awduche Distinguished Technical Member UUNET (MCI Worldcom) At last a comprehensive presentation of MPLS reflecting its development and usage, this book is a MUST for any Network Engineering Manager contemplating the deployment of MPLS. Monique Jeanne Morrow, IP Engineering Manager, Swisscom AG Davie and Rekhter provide a detailed and unbiased chronology of the evolution of MPLS. Their scientific approach to decomposing various protocols into their fundamental elements is interwoven with a more pragmatic compilation of diagrams, typical networking scenarios, and applications. Provides a solid knowledge base for researchers and operators dedicated to MPLS and its future. Eric Dean, Senior Director, Internetwork Engineering, Global One
