MPLS-TP - Don’t Forget the Control Plane |
|
|
|
|
Much of interest centres today on the new OAM capabilities and on deployment in networks with mainly static topologies. However, MPLS-TP also allows carriers to build networks with greater sophistication and complexity to meet ever-increasing service level requirements. Highlighting the application of MPLS-TP to advanced network scenarios, and the benefits an MPLS-TP control plane can bring.
