Hi, I totally agree. I was just trying to learn about RSVP and it’s uses in a lab setting. Call this more of a personal growth and improving of skills, I’m not trying to build anything production related. I did build an LDP based environment and you’re right it was pretty straight forward and was in fact where I started. So, no I’m not sure I need RSVP at all but it seemed important to learn. I think I’ll take a step back, read the book suggested and bone up on the basics further first.
