RE: MPLS Transfer Protocol ???

[Irwin Lazar]

MPLS stands for "Multiprotocol Label Switching," it is an IETF initiative for bringing ATM like features to an IP network (such as VPN tunnels, Quality of Service and Traffic Engineering to IP networks.  I have never heard the term "MPLS Transfer Protocol" and can only assume that they were either speaking of MPLS in general, or one of the MPLS label distribution protocols such as CR-LDP or RSVP-TE.   For all you ever wanted to know on MPLS and more, see the MPLS Resource Center at http://www.mplsrc.com/ .  We've got a fairly complete MPLS FAQ.   Irwin [Irwin Lazar]  -----Original Message----- From: Circusnuts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2000 6:31 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MPLS Transfer Protocol ??? Has anyone heard of this.  An prospective employer mentioned it in an interview.  The search engine brings back Minneapolis information :-)   Thanks !!! Phil
