Overview:
In nowadays there is a very active research in the field of MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS), and more and more networks are supporting MPLS. MPLS is a switching technology to forward packets based on a short, fixed length identifier called label. MPLS uses indexing instead of long address matching, and achieves fast forwarding. MPLS network consists of Label Switched Paths (LSPs) and edge/core Label Switched Routers (LSRs). LSPs are virtual unidirectional paths established from the sender to the receiver. One of the most notable applications of MPLS is Traffic Engineering (TE), since LSPs can be considered as virtual traffic trunks that carry flow aggregates generated by packet classification.
