This three-day course provides students with the knowledge required to design, implement, and troubleshoot the most crucial elements of a modern
MPLS deployment in a real-world service provider production network. This course includes extensive coverage of the RSVP and LDP protocols, and
an introductory appendix on MPLS segment routing. Technologies covered include the MPLS data plane, RSVP bandwidth and priorities, backup and
local repair paths, label-switched path (LSP) optimization, LDP enhancements and best practices, and a dedicated module on troubleshooting. The
course offers optional appendices on RSVP auto-bandwidth, and a wide variety of advanced RSVP features. Students will gain experience with all of
these protocols and features through a combination of detailed instructor training and hands-on labs. This course is based on Junos OS Release
21.4R1.12

- Explain the reasons MPLS was originally created, and the applications offered by label-switched paths.
- Describe the structure of an MPLS label, the mechanics of the data plane, and the protocols that can advertise labels.
- Configure static LSPs, verify the routing tables they populate, and explain the label actions these LSPs perform.
- Explain the purpose and advantages of RSVP, then configure a service provider network to host RSVP LSPs.
- Configure and verify a basic RSVP label-switch...

- Individuals responsible for designing, implementing, and troubleshooting MPLS networks that make use of RSVP and LDP as the signaling method for the creation of LSPs;
- Individuals who work with, or who aspire to work with, service provider networks;
- Individuals studying for the JNCIS-SP certification exam; and
- Individuals who have already passed the JNCISSP certification exam, and want to revise these concepts before attempting the JNCIE-SP certification exam
