This is the eBook version of the printed book.

Fault-Tolerant IP and Networks

Design and deploy high availability IP and network architectures with this comprehensive

* Includes a detailed overview of the IP/ forwarding and control plane protocols, including OSPF, IS-IS, LDP, BGP, and RSVP
* Analyze fault-tolerant IP/ control plane architectures with the explanations in this book
* Develop a clear understanding of various high availability aspects of IP/ networks
* Learn how to seamlessly deploy IP/ control plane restart mechanisms
* Master the application of fault-tolerant control-plane architectures in designing and deploying highly reliable and available applications, such as traffic engineering, L2VPNs, and L3VPNs
* Understand the layered architecture of network-level fault recovery mechanisms, such as optical, SONET, , and interactions between different layers

In the wake of increased traffic, today’s service providers and enterprises must assure high availability across a variety of networked services and applications. Multiprotocol Label Switching () is the enabling technology for the widespread deployment of IP networks in core and Metro Ethernet applications. Many service providers need to move their legacy Layer 2 and Layer 3 services onto converged and IP-enabled networks, but high availability is a prerequisite for offering profitable carrier-class services. Although most carrier-class routers do provide an adequate level of hardware redundancy, control-plane software is still vulnerable to and, in many cases, the cause of router failures.
