Topology: MPLS VPNs with MPLS-TE Instead of LDP - OSPF Routing Protocols

Written by LBSources from http://www.gns3-labs.com on July 10th, 2008 | 6 Comments

Based on his 2.0 lab, this is v2.5 by the famous Justine White over at Hacki.AT. I will also put toghether the 3.0 lab also. This is a very high CPU intense lab so be warned. I used 3640 routers to minimize the resource taxing.

As per the Justin in the original thread > MPLS VPNs v2.5 with MPLS-TE Instead of LDP

Here’s the version 2.5 of my MPLS lab updated to use MPLS-TE instead of LDP for distribution of labels. There aren’t any other changes over version 2, so the diagrams should be identical. Remember that this version consists of a 6-node MPLS network with a pair of P-core routers that also act as route-reflectors for the PE routers.

MPLS-TE Read

    A little simpler version - http://innerslaughter.org/2008/11/simple-sitetosite-mpls-vpn-in.html

    Nice innerslaughter! Though simpler doesn’t mean better :) It’s all about what you want to do .. Thanks again ..

    You are absolutely correct, that it is not (by definition) better :) However, the whole point is to get the basics down and learn how respective technologies work. I will be doing some more lab posts in the (near?) future, focusing on VPNs and QOS, as I trudge along learning these and other subjects.

    Hey .. share your topologies if you’re OK with that.. I’ll do it if you don’t have the time. I love sharing things I find along my way on the path :) Thanks!

    Here is one more - http://innerslaughter.org/2008/11/sitetosite-atom-frame-relay-dl.html - this time using AToM.
