Preface
The journey began with a spark of curiosity that ignited a deep desire to explore the subject firsthand. Eager to grasp the intricacies, I delved into hands-on practice with numerous labs, immersing myself in the practical aspects. As I honed my skills and knowledge, a unique idea emerged – to create a lab guide that could serve as a valuable resource for others venturing into this field.
The vision evolved further, as I realized the potential of consolidating all these efforts into a comprehensive book. Combining theory with practical experience, the book could offer readers a seamless learning path, catering to both their inquisitive minds and their desire for hands-on application.
The journey from curiosity to lab exploration and, finally, to crafting this book has been an exhilarating one. With passion and dedication, I aim to share this wealth of knowledge, hoping to inspire and empower others on their voyage of discovery and growth in this subject.
The primary objective driving the creation of this book is to facilitate a seamless transition from the traditional Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) to the Segment Routing MPLS (SR-MPLS). Recognizing the complexities and challenges that can arise during such a shift, the book endeavors to present the subject matter in a manner that simplifies the process for you.
By offering clear and concise explanations, practical examples, and step-by-step guidance, this book aims to empower network professionals and enthusiasts to adopt SR-MPLS with confidence. It seeks to demystify the intricacies and technicalities associated with the new approach, making it accessible and comprehensible to a wider audience.
The emphasis on simplicity in this book not only serves to ease the transition for experienced network engineers but also extends a welcoming hand to those new to this concept. Through well-structured content and user-friendly language, you are encouraged to embark on this journey with enthusiasm, knowing that you will be equipped with the knowledge and insights necessary to embrace the advancements in networking technology.
Overall, the book’s elaborative approach ensures that you will gain a solid understanding of SR-MPLS, empowering you to implement it effectively and harness its benefits in your networking environments.
