I am quoting Harold (hritter) in his answer some time ago:
======================
MPLS Books:
http://www.mplsrc.com/books.shtml
The MPLS Resource Center:
http://www.mplsrc.com/index.shtml
You can also refer to the basic RFC for MPLS:
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3031.txt
======================
Did it help?

Thanks for the info, but have had this info from Harold Ritter before, what I was after is if anyone could recommend a MPLS book to get you started (as there are a lot of books out there on this subject).
I am just about to start my journey into MPLS so would be very garteful if someone could recommend a book that they have used when they were looking to understanding MPLS - Just to get me going !!
Thanks -

I used this book during the inital stage of knowing MPLS and VPN.
MPLS and VPN Architectures, Vol. 1 (Hardcover)
by Ivan Pepelnjak, Jim Guichard
then, move to Vol 2 :)
Hope that helps.

i have that book in a hardcopy and the second volume in pdf, but i haven't read it yet...i'll use it to prepare for a project in my studies which relies to VPN...but to simulate i have a problem because i can't get a simulator that accept VPN!!

hi,
I thought this book is a very nice introduction:
MPLS : Technology and Applications (Paperback)
by Bruce S. Davie, Yakov Rekhter
ISBN: 1558606564
It starts very easy and leaves ATM out at the start. I think it is very well written and gives you all the basics you need.
