In this lecture you will not only get a peek into the world MPLS but a guide or map of the course that will guide you a step at a time in order to understand the real use of MPLS in the networking world.
This lecture will make you aware how long MPLS has been in use and why it was created to begin with.
In this lecture we will learn the different terms used in MPLS. This will allow you to properly troubleshoot in a real world environment or for a certification exam.
In this lecture students will get a look at the warm up lab they will be doing. I will explain the steps you would need to do when configuring the MPLS protocol
In this lecture we will summarize everything that was covered in the section.
In this lecture student will get a better understanding of the LDP protocol
In this lecture I will dissect the MPLS label and explain how its used in an MPLS network
This lecture is the Warm up lab that we will be configuring MPLS protocol in order to get familiarized with it.
In this lecture I will explain in more detail what actually happens to the label as it goes across the a network for Ingress PE to Egress PE.
This lecture will summarize the entire section and what students should've learned.
In this lecture I will explain the lab we will be working with for the rest of the course.
In this lecture I explain how to configure the ISIS routing protocols in order to get connectivity across your backbone network.
In this lab you will learn how to create and assign VRF's to the PE routers and what their purpose is.
In this lesson I will show the students how to configure BGP in the backbone network. Will also show students where and how you could configure route reflectors
This lecture will summarize the entire section
In this lecture students will begin to get an understanding of how to peer PE to CE communication and protocols they can use
In this lecture student will configure the BGP protocol to peer up with the CE router and configure BGP on the CE router to peer with the PE router..
In this lecture students will learn how to configure the RIPv2 routing protocol on the PE router in order to communicate with the CE Router. Students will also configure RIPv2 on CE routers.
In this lecture students will configure EIGRP on the PE router in order to be able to communicate with the CE router.
Students will also configure EIGRP on CE routers using the correct AS number.
This lecture summarizes the entire section.
In this lecture student will get a brief explanation to what traffic engineering is and what we can do with it.
In this lecture we will configure traffic engineering on the routers and show how to actually build a TE tunnel and control the path of a packet based on a criteria.
This lecture is the summary of the entire section
In this lecture I will briefly sum up what was covered on the entire course.
In this course we will cover all the fundamentals of MPLS. 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.
We will discuss the LDP protocol, what labels are and how they get forward it to other LDR Routers. 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 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.
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 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.
DISCLAIMER: Please note that the simulators/emulators used in this course are not part of the course. It is the students responsibility to have these to practice with. The Cisco Packet Tracer and/or VIRAL (Virtual Internet Routing Lab) are Cisco proprietary softwares and can only be obtained through Cisco. It is up to each student to obtain the simulator/emulator of their choice to study along with this course.
