FYI, the 3rd edition was released early. Was delivered this morning from Amazon. It has a whole new chapter on MPLS-TP (Ch. 17). Hope this helps, -Jeff On Dec 26, 2010, at 7:29 AM, Brandon Kim wrote:
Decisions decisions, I do have other MPLS books I have not finished. I suppose I can finish them before picking this up and then getting the 3rd edition.....might be good timing. Good thing I didn't order the 2nd edition the other day!

Looks like a third edition is on the way slated for March 2011

I would expect it to cover MPLS-TP and the struggling evolution of PBB-TE ... anybody has any idea if this is in ?

Does anyone have a favorite book or resource discussing MPLS and all associated Lego blocks (e.g. LDP, TE, VPLS, martini, mBGP et. al.)?
I understand the basics of what MPLS is and how you create a circuit from A to B but I'm afraid it still escapes me when trying to figure out how someone would, say, create a multicast capable VPN with 5 edge points.
Any pointers to a good way to reduce my level of ignorance on this subject would be appreciated. Vendor literature doesn't bother me as long as the concepts are there.
