Why should you choose TONEX for your MPLS VPN Training?

MPLS VPN training by TONEX covers how to plan, architect, design, implement, deploy, configure and troubleshoot MPLS VPNs in a variety of large scale network scenarios.

MPLS VPN allows several enterprise sites to interconnect through a network provided by a service provider (transparently) using  one or more VPN routing or forwarding instances (VRFs)  consisting of an IP routing table and forwarding table, and a set of interfaces using forwarding tables.

Learn about MPLS VPN:

  • VPN categories and topologies
  • Layer 3 VPNs
  • BGP or OSPF to the provider’s PE router, and the IP prefixes advertised at each customer site are carried across the provider network
  • Layer 2 VPNs, the way the provider interconnects the customer sites via the Layer 2 technology
  • MPLS/VPN terminology and architecture
  • P: Provider’s core router
  • PE: Provider’s edge router
  • CE: Customer’s edge router
  • C: Customer’s router.
  • Routing and forwarding model of MPLS/VPN.
  • Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) tables
  •  Multi-Protocol BGP in MPLS/VPN backbone and the PE-CE routing protocols.
  • Monitor and troubleshoot MPLS/VPN operations.
  •  OSPF operation inside a VPN network..
  • MPLS/VPN backbone

In MPLS VPN security can be guaranteed since MPLS technology to isolate the communication traffic of each customer. All IP network devices can be connected over at least two paths and are equipped with power and processing redundancy.
