MPLS stands for "Magic Problem-solving Labor Substitution", and lets you do all sorts of cool things on your network like - increase the speed of light by 17% - fit 700Mbit/sec of traffic on an OC12 - enable buzzword-compliant services that will make you billions of dollars with little more expended effort than it takes to sneeze. no, really! Or you could try, in order: Davie & Rekhter's book "MPLS: Technology and Applications" "MPLS and VPN Architectures", Guichard and Pepelnjak "Traffic Engineering with MPLS", Osborne (that's me!!) and Simha eric > Thanks is advance.. > anitha. > > > > > --------------------------------- > Do you Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
