Description
MPLS Enabled Applications provides the first comprehensive coverage of this burgeoning technology. From the fundamental principles of MPLS, the book logically progresses through to current hot research topics such as diffserv-aware traffic engineering and QoS, Inter-region LSPs, point-to-multipoint MPLS, and fast reroute. Advice is given on selecting the right protocols for the deployment of advanced applications and detailed discussion focuses on the configuration and management of such systems. Finally, the book examines the future of the technology and details its potential impact on future networking and associated Quality of Service issues.
