MPLS in Mobile Backhaul Evolution: 4G and Beyond
This tutorial examines the principal drivers for IP/MPLS backhaul
transport infrastructure that accommodates the scaling and latency needs of the evolving LTE mobile networks. Key challenges, options, benefits and tradeoffs of architectures supported with IP VPNs, L2VPNs and native Ethernet are explored, along with several deployment scenarios. Details on key aspects of the architecture such as reliability and timing, and its evolution which includes small cell support will be highlighted. Key existing and emerging industry standards/agreements are referenced. |

Enhancing IP/MPLS based Carrier Services to Address Data Center Interconnection (DCI)
The tutorial describes the requirements, motivation and options for using IP/MPLS technologies as a Data Center Interconnect technology.
The use of existing BGP-VPLS and LDP-VPLS as Data Center interconnect technologies, together with the enhancements needed to provide a resilient and scalable interconnect, taking into account service instance and MAC address scaling is underlined. The benefits of control plane based MAC learning using BGP are discussed, as well as a method for hiding the Intra DC MAC-addresses from the MPLS infrastructure.
Additionally, this tutorial describes the use of the relatively new E-VPN and PBB-EVPN technologies and how it enables Service Providers to offer an enhanced Data Center interconnect service. |
