Abstract

From the Publisher:Optimize network bandwidth with Traffic Engineering and MPLSHard to find information on how to use MPLS traffic engineering to optimize network bandwidth, save on network cost, and improve customer satisfactionUnderstand the theoretical underpinnings of the various protocols that comprise traffic engineeringLearn basic and advanced configuration of traffic engineering and related services like QoS and ATM interaction Suggested network designs, configuration examples, and an end-to-end case study provide readers with practical, working solutions readers can implement on their own networksAs corporations seek to reduce costs, improve efficiencies, gain market share and profit they increasingly are looking to their own information technology systems as a means to this end. Traffic engineering allows engineers to maximize network resources. It resolves the issue of having large amount of traffic on certain portions of the network while other portions go under-utilized. Traffic Engineering with MPLS provides readers with information on how to use MPLS traffic engineering and associated features to optimize network bandwidth. The book covers forwarding fundamentals, traffic engineering theory, protocol descriptions, deployment guidelines, configuration, show commands, and debugs. This book is a one-stop reference for understanding MPLS traffic engineering and implementing it on the network. A comprehensive case study is used to show a complete MPLS traffic engineering deployment.
