Multiprotocol Label Switching. Can read up on it at Cisco or I believe, whatis.com has a little on it, as well.

I found this link to Cisco for MPLS. http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/software/ios120/120newft/120 limit/120s/120s5/mpls_te.htm Bon apetit!

Converge Network Digest has a few tutorials on MPLS on their web site. Not alot of detail but really good overviews for someone new to the technology. http://www.convergedigest.com/Bandwidth/archive/010910TUTORIAL-rgallaher1.htm Hope this helps, Karen *** REPLY SEPARATOR *** On 3/10/2003 at 2:16 PM Steven Aiello wrote: >Sorry for such a newbe question.

Re: ??? MPLS ??? [7:64898]
look up back issues of cisco's "IP journal" there's a good article on MPLS.. ""Steven Aiello"" wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sorry for such a newbe question. But what is MPLS?

I would recommend you start at www.mplsrc.com and possibly surf to the standards page. Within that page, check out http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3031.txt?number=3031 at least for an overview of the architecture of the protocol itself. Cisco will have a great deal of information as well, and certainly played a big role in the development of the specifications, but also tend to use a lot of proprietary terminology that might just confuse you moving forward. Matt Kolon at Juniper said once that MPLS is essentially "low overhead, virtual circuits for IP." I personally think this statement aptly describes the protocol. At present, MPLS plays an enabling role in many technical solution sets, mostly in the VPN environment. Hence, a lot of folks, particularly when first learning the protocol, become distracted by the many features that "MPLS enabled" solutions might present, but lose site of what role MPLS itself plays. The C/S mailing list at Groupstudy might prove an interesting forum for Q&A as I believe MPLS is more relevant to that track, however this list certainly includes a bunch of folks who have a wealth of knowledge on the topic.
