We need another revision ... will follow up :)

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago

The CCIP edition of the book was written to comply with the MPLS 1.0 course from Cisco. In the meantime, Cisco rolled out MPLS 2.0 and MPLS 2.1, which expand (but shallow) the coverage of the MPLS technology and include additional topics not even implemented at the time when the CCIP edition of the book was written. It looks like a new CCIP edition of this MPLS classic is needed ... thanks for the hint, will start working on it :)

Excellent study guide - passed Ciscos MPLS exam

This is an excellent book on MPLS and VPNs, it treats all topics covered by the exam and even goes beyond that. I especially enjoyed the business cases, such as carriers carrier model - all in all a great book - it really gave me a good understanding of MPLS/VPNs and helped me pass the MPLS exam on my way to CCIP.

What a geat book!

Ivan and Jim did a splendid job. I haven't read such a well-written book in a long time. It is perfect for not only the people who are looking for a thorough understanding of MPLS, but also the begginers who know nothing about it. All the concepts are explained in great detail, and the language is so smooth, it makes the reading an enjoyment. Since the book is mainly focused on MPLS, you will need a good understanding of how BGP works before start reading this book (such as BGP synchronization and how to get aroung it). I am sure you will like this book.

This is a very useful reference book that had enough details for almost anybody. With the informaiton provided you can design, implement, and deploy MPLS-VPNs in a short timeframe. In addition, there are several good overviews for new MPLSers. Job very well done!
