hi all,
i need some clarification regarding the 3850 series switch.
already we bought one cisco 3850 switch (ws-c3850-xs-s). it's having IP base Image. now we have been planning to use for MPLS connectivity.
i think MPLS is not support in IP base image. kindly let me know, is this possible to implement MPLS in IP base image?.
if it's not possible how to move from IP base image to IP service Image in particular switch.
kindly share anyone ASAP.

hey just to remember on 3850s dont support nat and they wont take a full bgp table due to ram restrictions and they only run vrf lite as far as i remember not full mpls
Better off getting a proper router not a catalyst switch

EoMPLS—One of the Any Transport over MPLS (AToM) transport types. EoMPLS provides a tunneling mechanism for Ethernet traffic through an MPLS-enabled Layer 3 core. It encapsulates Ethernet protocol data units (PDUs) inside MPLS packets and uses label stacking to forward them across the MPLS network.
VPLS—A class of VPN that supports the connection of multiple sites in a single bridged domain over a managed IP/MPLS network. VPLS uses the provider core to join multiple attachment circuits together, to simulate a virtual bridge that connects the multiple attachment circuits together.
EIGRP MPLS VPN PE-CE SoO—Introduces the capability to filter MPLS Virtual Private Network (VPN) traffic on a per-site basis for Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) networks. SoO filtering is configured at the interface level and is used to manage MPLS VPN traffic, and to prevent transient routing loops from occurring in complex and mixed network topologies.

Hi
I'm almost sure it won't run LDP, it is not displayed on the table below, but you could be sure through the Cisco Feature Navigation tool:

Select Platform and IOS XE then select the options.
