Introduction

Delegates will learn technology basics as well as some of the more updated features and functions such as Traffic Engineering, Carrier Supporting Carrier, and Any Transport over MPLS (AToM).

There is a focus on technology issues of MPLS from the Service Provider’s perspective, and learn to configure some of those features and functions in an existing routed environment.

Pre-Requisites

Delegates are required to meet the following pre-requisites:

CCNA or equivalent knowledge

BSCI – Building Scaleable Cisco Internetworks course

BGP – Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers Course

QoS – Implementing Cisco Quality of Service

MPLS – Implementing MPLS

Or have equivalent knowledge.

Practical experience with deploying and operating networks based on Cisco IOS and network devices is strongly recommended.

Who should attend?

The Implementing Cisco MPLS Traffic Engineering and Other Features (MPLST) course is recommended training for individuals seeking advanced MPLS based knowledge and skills.

Course Objectives

After completing this course, delegates will be able to:

• Identify MPLS's peer-to-peer architecture and explain label allocation, routing update distribution and packet forwarding model in this architecture.
• Given a working MPLS network and diagram of a network, used the CISCO IOS commands required to successfully configure, monitor, and troubleshoot service provider support using the MPLS Carrier supporting Carrier service.
• Identify the MPLS Traffic Engineering architecture and explain how MPLS implements traffic engineering, establishes the constraint-based path and assigning traffic to traffic trunks.
• Given a working MPLS network and diagram of a network, used the CISCO IOS commands required to successfully configure, monitor, and troubleshoot MPLS Traffic Engineering.
• Given a working MPLS network and diagram of a network, used the CISCO IOS commands required to successfully implement a defined SLA using the MPLS QoS services.
• Given a working MPLS network and diagram of a network, used the CISCO IOS commands required to successfully configure, monitor, and troubleshoot layer-2 services using the Any Transport over MPLS service.
• Given a working MPLS network and diagram of a network, used the CISCO IOS commands required to successfully configure, monitor, and troubleshoot IPv6 support in a MPLS environment.
