Design a robust BGP control plane within a secure, scalablenetwork for smoother services
A robust Border Gateway Protocol setup is vital to ensuringreliable connectivity, an essential capability for anyorganization. The Internet has become a necessary, always-onservice in homes and businesses, and BGP is the protocol that keepscommunication flowing. But BGP also has become crucial to deliveryof intra-domain business services. But the network is only asreliable as BGP, so service enablement depends upon making BGP morestable, reliable, and service-rich.
Alcatel-Lucent Service Router Operating System is engineered tobear the load of the most demanding networks. The system featuressupport for Symmetric Multiprocessing and unprecedented depth ofadvanced routing features, all within a single OS that's supportedacross the entire Alcatel-Lucent IP/MPLS router portfolio. Versatile Routing and Services with BGP provides guidancetoward implementation of BGP within SR-OS, and details the use andcontrol of each feature. The book provides in-depth coverage oftopics such as:
* BGP/MPLS IP-VPN, VPLS, VPWS
* Labeled Unicast IPv4, reconvergence, and multicast
* Security, graceful restart and error handling
* IPv6 PE (6PE) and IPv6 extensions to BGP/MPLS IP-VPN
* A look at forthcoming features such as Ethernet VPN
Basic BGP competency is assumed, but the book is accessible evento those with zero familiarity with Alcatel-Lucent's SR-OS. Itunderscores the idea that BGP is more than just service enablement, and can also be used for infrastructure layer transport - but bothlayers must be solid, scalable, and able to quickly reconverge. Versatile Routing and Services with BGP demonstrates thecreation of a robust BGP control plane within a, secure network, allowing the delivery of flawless, uninterrupted service.
