MPLS has emerged as the new networking layer for service providers throughout the world. For many service providers and enterprises MPLS is a way of delivering new applications on their IP networks, while consolidating data and voice networks. MPLS has grown to be the new default network layer for service providers and is finding its way into enterprise networks as well. This book focuses on the building blocks of MPLS (architecture, forwarding packets, LDP, MPLS and QoS, CEF, etc.). This book also reviews the different MPLS applications (MPLS VPN, MPLS Traffic Engineering, Carrying IPv6 over MPLS, AToM, VPLS, MPLS OAM
etc.).
You will get a comprehensive overview of all the aspects of MPLS, including the building blocks, its applications, troubleshooting and a perspective on the future of MPLS.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent level of detail and insight   March 24, 2008
  3 out of 4 found this review helpful

This is a book where you are given not only an in depth what it is and how its implemented of the protocol but you are also given great insight as to the why its done this way. You are given all of this in a very readable format. I agree with another reviewer that this is an exhaustive text into the internals of MPLS. I love the level of detail it goes into.

MPLS Fundamental book contain essential information for any expert CCIP and CCIE.
However, the book contain the following items that make it complex and unsuitable
To a junior IT staff reader:

1.The lab/demos don't use one lab design. Learning each chapter (and sometimes
Any page) with a new lab design, make the self study learning hard.
Although the author tried to avoid this issue, the issue reoccur in each chapter.

2.Each into/overview after chapter 6 doesn't cover the learning purpose and the
Important information that the reader will learn .

3.The "Who Should Read This Book?" section should provide information that
Expert in routing (especially in BGP 4) is a pre-requirement to learn MPLS.

This is a very good book, running from the fundamentals to more advanced topics about MPLS. Easy to read.


3 out of 5 stars Good book. Misleading name.   November 21, 2007
  2 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is a fairly exhaustive book on cisco MPLS implementation. The name "MPLS Fundamentals" gives an idea that this is a good place to start with, ut unfortunately not. It starts at a basic level, but in no time dives in deep. Use this book only if you want to understand specific areas in depth and not for an overview. Also, if you have access to your own lab, you will find it much easier to follow along.
