Furthermore, QoS routing, and security and reliability are also discussed. Additionally, the book assesses the need for the different technologies, techniques and solutions for given problems in network routing, and provides model solutions. Apart for conventional network routing topics, certain sections in various chapters cover contemporary topics like challenges in mobile computing, interoperability and applications of low power wireless personal area network, network management, mobile agents, attack surface, tactical networks, and cognitive security. Focuses on key concepts in different network technologies (e.g. The Internet, wireless ad hoc networks etc.). Provides a single point of reference on network routing.
Discusses techniques for given problems in network routing, and provides model solutions. Explores advanced concepts in network routing such as security and reliability and fault-tolerance. Includes an accompanying website containing PowerPoint slides and solutions to questions www.wiley.com/go/misra2204 This book is unique.
It deals with routing in multiple generations of communication –from NSFNet to IoT, passing through ATM, MPLS, ad hoc, cellular, and wireless sensor networks in-between. This will clearly have a differentiating value for the readers. The technology is changing at an unprecedented pace, and the modern-day networks are significantly different from how they looked just a decade ago. This has resulted in numerous design challenges, security concerns, mobile agents, network-centric operations, cognitive capabilities, and much more. This book is distinct as it touches significantly upon all communication technologies on the anvil for the near future, apart from its coverage of routing in past networks.

Now over ten years old, it has taken root firmly as a fundamental tool in many service provider networks. The last ten years have seen a considerable consolidation of MPLS techniques and protocols. This has resulted in the abandoning of some of the original features of MPLS, and the development of other new features.
MPLS has moved from a prospective solution, to a grown-up technology. Now that MPLS has reached this level of maturity, these new tools and features allow more sophisticated services to the users of the network.
These tools and features are discussed within various contexts throughout several networking-related books published by MK and this presents us with a unique publishing opportunity. The proposed book is a best-of-the-best collection of existing content from several books MK has published in recent years on MPLS technology (multi-label protocol switching). Individual chapters on MPLS technology are derived from a handful of MK books and are combined in one new volume in a way that makes sense as a reference work for those interested in new and developing aspects of this technology, i.e., network operators and designers who need to determine which aspects of their networks would benefit from MPLS technology and applications. It also serves as a definitive reference for engineers implementing MPLS-based products. This book represents a quick and efficient way to bring valuable content together from leading experts in the field while creating a one-stop-shopping opportunity for customers to receive the information they would otherwise need to round up from separate sources.
Suitable and current content will be collected from the following titles: Evans, Deploying IP and MPLS QoS (2006); Farrel, GMPLS (2005); Ash, Traffic Engineering (2006); Vasseur, Network Recovery (2005); Farrel, The Internet and Its Protocols (2004); Nadeau, MPLS Management (2003); and Davie, MPLS Technology and Applications (2000). These chapters will be updated where necessary and two new chapters will be added at the beginning and the end of the book to bring the content into focus and discuss next generation developments. Coverage of major applications of MPLS such as traffic engineering, VPNs, IP integration, GMPLS, and QoS written by leading experts in the field contributes to your practical knowledge of this key technology Shows you how to implement various MPLS applications that will result in saving your organization time and money Shows you how you can evaluate MPLS applications and techniques in relation to one another so you can develop an optimum network design.

Carrier Ethernet VPN services based on VPLS makes this a reality. Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS) is a pseudowire (PW) based, multipoint-to-multipoint layer 2 Ethernet VPN service provided by services providers By deploying a VPLS service to customers, the operator can focus on providing high throughput, highly available Ethernet bridging services and leave the layer 3 routing decision up to the customer. Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) is quickly becoming the number one choice for many enterprises and service providers to deploy data communication networks.
Alcatel-Lucent VPLS solution enables service providers to offer enterprise customers the operational cost benefits of Ethernet with the predictable QoS characteristics of MPLS.
This two-day course is designed to provide students with a solid foundation on Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). After introducing concepts such as MPLS forwarding and the structure of the MPLS header, the course will delve into the configuration and operation of the two main label distribution protocols, RSVP and LDP. Special emphasis is given to the central topics of traffic engineering and MPLS traffic protection, including fast reroute, link/node protection, and LDP loop-free alternate. The concepts are put into practice with a series of in-depth hands-on labs, which will allow participants to gain experience in configuring and monitoring MPLS on Junos OS devices.
These hands-on labs utilize Juniper Networks vMX Series devices using the Junos OS Release 16.1R3.10, but are also applicable to other MX Series devices. Course LevelJMF is an intermediate-level course. Intended AudienceThis course benefits individuals responsible for configuring and monitoring devices running the Junos OS. PrerequisitesStudents should have intermediate-level networking knowledge and should be familiar with the Junos OS command-line interface (CLI). Students should also attend the Introduction to the Junos Operating System (IJOS) and Junos Intermediate Routing (JIR) courses prior to attending this class.
