IMPLEMENTING CISCO MPLS

CISCO

The course will enable learners to gather information from the technology basics to advanced VPN configuration. The focus of the course is on VPN technology issues of MPLS from the Service Providers perspective and how to configure some of those features and functions in an existing routed environment.

About this course

A basic introductory level of some of the more updated features and functions such as Traffic Engineering, Fast Reroute and Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) are introduced on a concept level only and the MPLS Traffic Engineering and other Features course should be taken for in depth learning of those topics.

Target Audience

Implementing cisco MPLS is recommended training for individuals seeking certification as a Cisco CCIP. The focus of this course is on MPLS technology issues as those issues apply to service providers and how to configure new features and functions in an existing routed environment.
