Overview

In this comprehensive course, we will delve into the intricacies of MPLS, providing a thorough understanding of its implementation, terminology, configurations, and most importantly, its practical application in utilizing Layer 3 VPNs. Students will gain a deep knowledge of MPLS and its various components.

Key Topics to be Covered

MPLS Implementation Rationale

In order to gain a comprehensive understanding of MPLS implementation, it is crucial to delve into the reasons behind its adoption. By exploring the motivations and objectives that drive organizations to implement MPLS, we can better grasp the benefits and advantages it offers. This knowledge will enable us to make informed decisions regarding MPLS deployment in our own networks.

MPLS Terminology

To navigate the complex world of MPLS, it is essential to familiarize ourselves with the terminology commonly used in an MPLS environment. By gaining a solid understanding of the various terms and concepts associated with MPLS, we can effectively communicate and collaborate with other professionals in the field. This will facilitate smoother implementation and troubleshooting processes.

MPLS Configurations

Concentrating on the configurations used in MPLS, with a specific emphasis on Layer 3 VPNs, allows us to delve deeper into the practical aspects of MPLS deployment. By focusing on Layer 3 VPNs, we can explore the specific configurations required to establish secure and efficient virtual private networks. This knowledge will empower us to optimize our MPLS networks and ensure seamless connectivity for our users.

Detailed Discussion Points

LDP Protocol and Label Forwarding

Exploring the LDP protocol, the concept of labels, and how they are forwarded to other LDR Routers.

Hands-on Lab

Practical demonstration of label forwarding and configuration of multiple IGP routing protocols along with BGP routing for network information dissemination.

VPN Creation and Manipulation

Creation of multiple types of VPNs, showcasing the manipulation of packets using Route Targets and Route Reflectors.

Network Communication Establishment

Setting up communication between Provider Edge routers, Customer Edge Routers, and inter-company communication through VPNs.

VRF Creation and Understanding Tables

Exploring the creation of VRFs and understanding CEF, LFIB, LRIB, and other tables for MPLS troubleshooting

  2. This MPLS course gave me the understanding i needed for my current role. Previously, i struggled to understand MPLS concepts but this course has helped me grasp the foundations and I can now take it further. Thank you very much Laz. Good job! ~ J Murungi
  3. Excellent training, good knowledge of the topic ~ M Garcia
  4. I love his energy and his ability to explain the terminology and concepts ~ Chiquita W
  5. It's really a good course help us to understand fundamentals of MPLS ~ A Ingle
  6. Very well explained, excellent lecture ~ S Howlett
  7. Really great course needed to learn for a new job and it is definitely helping ~ M Martinez
  8. The instructor does an excellent job of displaying and relaying his material to his students ~ Ivan W
  9. Very good lab session and explained in depth ~ B Alakkat
  10. Yes it good match for me. I learnt many things throughout the course and know about basic and advance criteria for MPLS network that will definitely help me in real Networking world ~ Anand S
  11. Nice clear and simple way of getting things across and explaining. A great course for understanding MPLS in a very simple way ~ R Prabhu
  12. The lecturer is straight to the point. Very clear in his concepts. Recommended for beginners. Thank You Sir for the video ~ A Venugopal
  13. Highly motivating videos to learn the material through lab practice covering a variety of protocols. This was extremely helpful in understanding MPLS ~ P. E. Katzer
  14. I have enjoyed the course very much. The presentation was clear and right to the point. I had been reading about MPLS but I was not clear to the whole picture, but after taking this class I would say that this is what I was waiting for. His labs were very right to the point on showing the concepts just discussed. I would suggest for Mr Lazaro to do a short course on MPLS VPN , and DMVPN ~ E Arredondo
  15. I personally like the way of Laz teaching style and this course can be learnt about fundamental of mpls configuration and traffic engineering. I want to recommend to learn this course for who preparing for CCNA and CCNP students. Will purchase more courses for Laz. Thank you ~ K Aung
