MPLS documentation question open original image

Hello,



I'm re-entering the MPLS development world after an absence of four years. When I last worked on MPLS in 2002, the standards were taking shape, RSVP seemed to be the signalling protocol of choice in favour of LDP, while Diff-Serv, Int-Serv and TE were going though the standardisation process. I suppose that the landscape has changed substantially since then. Now there is talk of G-MPLS.



Could anyone recommend me some MPLS material or books to read to help me catch up?



Many thanks , Polo
