Features: This book combines the author's experience and insights from related work, following the scientific theory of network hierarchical layers, to propose optimization strategies and methods for operator IP metropolitan networks. The book is divided into 8 chapters. Chapter 1 introduces the hierarchical structure of IP metropolitan networks and optimization metrics. Chapter 2 discusses the design and optimization methods of metropolitan network topology. Chapter 3 provides a detailed introduction to the working principles, optimization methods, and examples of the physical layer/chain layer. Chapter 4 explores the selection and optimization methods of internal gateway protocols (IGP) and external gateway protocols (EGP) in metropolitan networks, introduces how to collect traffic and guide the implementation of traffic engineering (TE), and explains how to ensure service QoS. Chapter 5 introduces optimization methods and examples for broadband access and authentication, combining various popular broadband access technologies and applications. Chapter 6 covers general strategies and optimization examples for network management optimization in metropolitan networks. Chapter 7 introduces methods and examples for implementing secure access and control in metropolitan networks. Chapter 8 discusses value-added services running on metropolitan networks, such as MPLSVPN and multicast optimization strategies and implementation methods. The primary readers of this book are IP metropolitan network operators, engineering technicians in related communication fields, and students and teachers with a certain understanding of IP metropolitan network technologies.
