In 2008, the ITU and IETF founded a joint working group to further develop the concept for the use of MPLS in transport networks, which had previously been known as T-MPLS. The architecture, now known as MPLS-TP (Transport Profile), has since undergone intensive further development and numerous standards have been adopted. Particular attention is paid to the topic of operation and maintenance. This course deals in detail with the operation and application area of MPLS-TP. The differences to the widely used IP-MPLS are particularly emphasized. Discussions and practical examples offer the opportunity to acquire detailed knowledge and to assess the new architecture competently.
