MPLS VPN

[cisco.ccnapie1]

Hello All,

I am new to Cisco routers and MPLS too. Can someone please guide me to few links to understand MPLS.
Basically I am looking for MPLS-VPN understanding. I need to implement the and troubleshoot in my current role.

Thanks,

Hi

The book "MPLS Fundamentals" is a very good book when learning MPLS for the first time.

An article on the internet will never be as good as a real book, but you can get the ebook: http://www.ciscopress.com/store/mpls-fundamentals-9781587051975

Thanks Henrik. Is there any RFC that I can refer to? I would like to know if the same fundamentals applies for multivendor environment?

Hi, 

Implementation and operational wise there would not much difference. Since you are looking for RFC. You may want to check RFC2547. This has in-depth understanding of things and easy to understand.

HTH,
