That was really nice video. Hands on configuration is always more interesting and educational in my opinion! Got some questions as usual :)
1) How do you, as ISP, hide your IGP hops with MPLS labels from customers so they don't appear in their traceroute? I believe most ISP's hide this info.
2) Is it possible from customer to still observe hops mentioned above, using some kind of custom traceroute utility?
3) What software/icon set did you use to draw the diagram? Looks really great :)
1) To hide provider network from customers performs trace route, in global config mode of PE routers you need to type no mpls ip propagate-ttl forwarded .
Thank you for the comments. I use SecureCRT (which is around $100), with a tab open to each of the routers. Putty (which is free) has a tool called Connection Manager (CM) which is also free, that lets you use tabs to switch between device as well.
really appreciate your approach and enthusiasm. in my graduate coures, I presented your materital to my grad. students, to help summarize MPLS and also showed your demo on the routers. I think it really helped to congeal the many concepts about routing protocols and versatility of MPLS from a provider's point of view. what tool do you use to switch between the routers?
Thanks a lot Keith. I should definitely admit you have a great skill of teaching and the way you teach makes me think the concept is very simple, even though it is heavy!
Regarding the typing speed: When I plan out a video, I prep the commands and have them ready. Sometimes I will do the audio separately (after the fact), and sometimes I will automate the scripts. My typing is about average, and I am thankful for spell checks!
Great videos! Thanks

2) Don't think so .
3) I second that. Really nice icons.

Do you have video showing how to set up the underlying BGP network?

@orlasoe
The only BGP in the entire config is on the two PE routers, and is a iBGP neighborship.
The ISP is just using OSPF everywhere, in a single OSPF area.
Best wishes,
Keith

It was a good refresher for me, and learnt about ipve VRF as well... Thanks Keith
