Show 389: Using MPLS In The Enterprise
Today on the Weekly show, MPLS in the enterprise, especially for the use case of segmentation.
Should you do it? Why would you do it? Considering the equipment you ve got, could you do it even if you wanted to? And even if you should, you would, and you can, what about all those other people you work with?
Discussing this emotionally fraught topic of MPLS in the enterprise is Tom Ammon, a senior network engineer who s supported it in a few different environments. He blogs at TomAmmon.net.
We start by discussing the general case for MPLS in the enterprise, walk through the hardware and software requirements necessary to support MPLS, and then drill into segmentation more specifically.
We also look at reasons why you’d want to use MPLS for segmentation, and explores issues around operations, skillsets and training, and troubleshooting.
