MPLS Cheatsheet v1.2

VRF allows overlapping address spaces between customers in MP-BGP. Route distinguishers and route targets are used to transfer routes between VRFs and VPNs. LDP and TDP are label distribution protocols used to set up label switched paths through MPLS networks to forward packets in the same forwarding equivalence class along the same path. Label switched routers determine label operations like swapping, pushing, or popping labels.
