Implement the design principles and configurations behind MPLS-based VPNs for broadband access networks The book discusses how MPLS and its VPN service are best used in a broadband environment, concentrating on key design issues and solutions, including 
<ul>
<li>How to manage tens of thousands of interfaces and host routes and hundreds of dynamic VPNs</li> <li>When a Virtual Home Gateway is necessary</li> <li>Why use dynamic address assignment</li> <li>How routes should be summarized into the core</li>
</ul>
Deploy MPLS VPNs successfully in broadband networks with Building MPLS-Based Broadband Access VPNs. This book helps you understand why and how today's broadband networks function, covering the principal access technologies: DSL, Ethernet, and cable. The book also examines the different tunneling protocols used for VPN solutions today, namely GRE, IPSec, and L2TP, with examples of how these solutions are deployed and a discussion of their strengths and weaknesses. Building MPLS-Based Broadband Access VPNs also includes an in-depth description of the IOS VRF Lite, which helps you use VRF-aware features with an IP core. Detailed descriptions of the technologies, design principles, network configurations, and case studies are provided throughout the book, helping you develop a pragmatic understanding of MPLS-based broadband access VPNs. <ul>
<li>Obtain a realistic understanding of large-scale broadband access network design requirements</li> <li>Recognize the business impact of using MPLS to provide access VPN services, including the advantages of QoS, availability, and provisioning</li> <li>Use MPLS in access VPN and transport networks and deal with the unique scalability problems that such networks pose</li> <li>Leverage VRF-aware features to deploy IP-based VPNs</li> <li>Includes detailed Cisco IOS configuration examples based on real-world scenarios</li>
</ul>
This book is part of the Networking Technology Series from Cisco PressÂ¿ which offers networking professionals valuable information for constructing efficient networks, understanding new technologies, and building successful careers.

Share network resources and reduce costs while providing secure network services to diverse user communities <ul>
<li>Presents the business drivers for network virtualization and the major challenges facing network designers today</li> <li>Shows how to use virtualization designs with existing applications, such as VoIP and network services, such as quality of service and multicast</li> <li>Provides design alternatives for different real-world deployment scenarios, with configuration examples and case studies </li> </ul> Today's enterprises have several groups of users with specific needs. The differences between these groups translate into specific network requirements. Within some organizations, these requirements are so dissimilar that the different groups need to be treated as totally separate customers by the enterprise's IT department. As the number of groups increases, keeping them separate and secure is a challenge to IT departments, particularly with the advent of wireless networks, the requirement for enterprise-wide user mobility, and the need for cross group collaboration with resource sharing on a per project basis. Network Virtualization provides design guidance for virtualized enterprise networks and arms network architects with the background necessary to make sound technological choices in the face of different business requirements. As a means of introduction, Network Virtualization lays out the fundamentals of enterprise network design. The book builds upon these fundamental principles to introduce the different virtualization methods as the logical evolution of the enterprise network architecture. Detailed descriptions of the technology, design principles, network configurations, and real-world case studies are provided throughout the book, helping readers develop a pragmatic understanding of virtualized enterprise network architectures. Specific examples are included that tailor deployment advice to the small, medium, and large enterprise environment.
