MPLS– Implementing Cisco MPLS

The MPLS Implementing Cisco MPLS Course focuses on one of the most centric network technologies. MPLS is a technology that has established a new network layer for service providers worldwide. For many service providers and enterprises, Multi Protocol Label Switching is a way to deliver new applications over their IP networks, while consolidating data and voice networks. The continuous search by enterprises for value-added services has highlighted the limit of technologies characterized by the conventional forwarding of IP packets. MPLS represents a mature and effective technological response to this limit. The course will cover technologies and implementations associated with MPLS, such as traffic engineering (TE), virtual private networks (layer 2 VPNs), and Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS). The practical laboratory part, a must in the Vega Training training offer, takes place on real infrastructures where practical implementation and troubleshooting scenarios will be addressed.

Course Objectives

The following is a summary of the main objectives of the MPLS Implementing Cisco MPLS Course :

  1. Understand the fundamental concepts of MPLS and its application in modern networks.
