Title: Message
Hi Doug,
    Thanx for the URL..It was pretty informative.
I have one query..
To run MPLS, is that CEF is necessary??
Also can anyone of you explain how exactly the label swapping occurs when a packet moves from A to B on an MPLS enabled network?
 
Thanx in advance.
 
Regards.
anitha.
