IP Communications: Implementing MPLS Traffic Engineering & Other Features

Show more Cisco UCM Training Courses

About this class

This five-day course will enable customers to gather information from the technology basics to some of the more updated features and functions such as Traffic Engineering, Carrier Supporting Carrier and Any Transport over MPLS (AToM). The focus of the course is on technology issues of MPLS from the Service Providers perspective and how to configure some of those features and functions in an existing routed environment.

Customised training is available to emphasize the specific requirements of the customer's network and business demands. The course is delivered in a balance of lectures, hands-on labs, and white board discussions

Who will the lesson benefit?

The Implementing Cisco MPLS Traffic Engineering and Other Features (MPLST) course is recommended training for individuals seeking advanced MPLS based knowledge and skills.

What delegates will learn

• Identify MPLS's peer-to-peer architecture and explain label allocation, routing update distribution and packet forwarding model in this architecture
• Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot service provider support using the MPLS Carrier supporting Carrier service.Identify the MPLS Traffic Engineering architecture and explain how MPLS implements traffic engineering, establishes the constraint-based path and assigning traffic to traffic trunks
• Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot MPLS Traffic Engineering.
• Implement a defined SLA using the MPLS QoS services
• Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot layer-2 services using the Any Transport over MPLS service.Configure, monitor, and troubleshoot IPv6 support in a MPLS environment.

What prerequisites are required

Delegates are required to meet the following prerequisites:

• CCNA or equivalent knowledge
• BSCI - Building Scaleable Cisco Internetworks course
• BGP - Configuring BGP on Cisco Routers Course
• QoS - Implementing Cisco Quality of Service
• MPLS - Implementing MPLS

or have equivalent knowledge.

Practical experience with deploying and operating networks based on Cisco IOS and network devices is strongly recommended
