Talk:MPLS VPN

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ok i just wrote this up because i noticed there was no page... i work with MPLS-VPNs everyday and there is probablly a lot more info i can put into the page... Specifically i havent said much about route-refecltors and iBGP (and eBGP with multiple private AS merging multiple MPLS-VPNs) use in practicle MPLS-VPN deployments.. also i havent linked many key works to other wikipedia articles. I could get down to the nitty gritty Cisco commands used in MPLS-VPNS too but i think wikipedia might want to remain non-vendor specific? hhhh Still i guess its better than NO MPLS-VPN page, feel free to make your changes :). My grammer and sentence structure, along with spelling was never one of my strong points :).

For those interested, I work for Comindico, who i believe were one of the very first (if not the first?) to deploy a national (in Australia) MPLS network that was designed from day one to be MPLS. The network is 100% MPLS, and covers 98% (maybe more?) of Australia.

I fixed up your spelling in a few places, expanded on some acronymns and sorted out the internal links a bit. I don't really understand the subject material so I don't have any opinion on how to expand the article, but it's a good start! Davelong 09:39, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] More Information requested.

If the Comindico person could please talk more about the following in brief it will be definitely useful. I have worked in this domain about 5 years ago to recollect the matter in the right order! A) CSPF (Constraint based OSPF) to provide TE. B) Martini VPNs (I believe they are usually referred to as VLL) and LDP. As far as I remember, VLL required special support in LDP to distribute labels. C) Label stacking and how it's put to use for VLL and TLS D) Finally PHP - Penultimate Hop Popping. Thanks, Kalyan

[edit] reworking MPLS

I deleted a few paragraphs here, as part of a project to document MPLS and related applications better. Some of what I deleted will reappear in more detailed articles, so don't worry about your content. The idea is that this page is a short overview of MPLS-based VPN technologies, with a short intro on each technology, just enough to tell them apart from each other. For more detail, the links should be followed to the article about that specific technology.

Please help! The [talk page] of the new "MPLS networking" category has a list of articles that need to be written. Bert Vermeulen 11:07, May 22, 2005 (UTC)
