The video demonstrates two methods of specifying traffic path in Cisco MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE); Explicit and Dynamic Path. We will first look at Dynamic Path and its ability to automatically calculate the shortest path to tunnel destination router even routing around a failed link. We will then touch on the concept of tunnel re-optimization and adjusting its timer. You can also gain complete hop-by-hop control of the traffic path by using an Explicit Path option, which we will review in the second half of the video.

The video gets you started on Cisco MPLS Traffic Engineering (TE). We will look at the fundamental of MPLS TE including routing protocol, specifically ISIS, metric support, additional routing information the protocol needs to carry, and the role of Resource Reservation Protocol (RSVP) in bandwidth reservation, MPLS label distribution, and tunnel establishment. As a quick demonstration, we will configure a basic MPLS TE tunnel, perform Wireshark packet capture, and review RSVP packets.

It is possible for a single CE device to serve multiple MPLS clients. This requires traffic segregation to be extended to the CE device. The video looks at a scenario of multi-VRF CE device in Cisco MPLS VPN. We will configure two PE-CE routing protocols; BGP and OSPF, in VRF-lite setup and enable support for MPLS label exchange all the way to the CE router. Special configuration will be presented now that our CE router contains multiple VRF and participates in MPLS forwarding.

Route reflector can be used in MPLS VPN to increase network scalability and routing manageability similarly to IPv4 BGP. This video demonstrates configuration of a route reflector in Cisco MPLS VPN. We will closely look at how a route reflector should be incorporated in a design and its placement choices. The lab also contains a special scenario of load balancing traffic to a site with dual connections, and advance exercises on route filter and Route Target rewrite.

This video looks at another alternative of implementing share service and internet service for Cisco MPLS VPN. We will repeat the same lab scenarios as the previous video but this time using a VRF. You will see differences in implementation effort comparing to the non-VRF method. Pros and cons between the two methods will be discussed so you can make an informed decision on the deployment option.
