Features: The purpose of this book is to help you enhance your knowledge of advanced MPLS VPN application scenarios and enable you to apply MPLS and MPLS VPN solutions in various complex designs. Although you can read this book from cover to cover, its design is flexible, allowing readers to freely flip between chapters and subsections to focus on the material they need most. If you plan to read all the content, the order of this book is an excellent arrangement. Building on the foundation of "MPLS and VPN Architectures" (Volume 1), this book discusses advanced MPLS VPN application topics and architecture development. The book is divided into four parts, with a total of 9 chapters. Part I is an introduction, briefly reviewing MPLS VPN architecture; Part II covers advanced PE-CE interconnection, including remote access for MPLS VPNs, enhancements to PE-CE routing protocols and advanced features, and virtual router interconnection; Part III discusses advanced application scenarios, including MPLS VPN backbone protection, large-scale routing and multi-service provider interconnection, VPN multicast, and IPv6 transmission over the MPLS backbone; Part IV is troubleshooting. This book is aimed at intermediate to advanced network technicians. For those who need to participate in the design, maintenance, and application of advanced, large-scale MPLS or MPLS VPN networks, this book is a must-read.
