2. What will be covered
• Introduction
• How to set up the Lab
• Configuration
• Connectivity Check
3. • Introduction
In this lab you are going to learn how to use Mikrotik’s powerful operating system , Router OS® , in
order to implement MPLS/VPN functionality , although it lacks Important features like fast reroute * .
All of the main examples and configurations for MPLS/VPN are given from Mikrotik’s documentations
** website .
4. • How to set up the Lab
The DELL Labtop is used for runnig vmware workstation to simulate the MPLS network
with virtual machines running as Mikrotik Router-OS as Provider (P) and Provider Edge (PE)
routers,Windows Server 2003 as Customer Edge ( CE) routers . Juniper SRX 210HM , First SSG-5
and Second SSG-5 act as HUB site , Spoke-Branch-1 and Spoke-Branch-2 respectively .
Labtop’s FastEthernet and Pluggable USB to Gigabit Ethernets are used for connecting CE-1 to
HUB site , CE-2 to spoke-2 and CE-3 to spoke-3 so we can make bridge between real world
and Virtual world .
Lets take a look at physical lab components
