Let’s learn how to stretch an MPLS VPN between ISPs using a thing called “Option B”. It involves a little bit of trust between the ISPs – but as we’ll see, it greatly reduces the complexity in configuration!

Ever wondered whether it’s possible to stretch an MPLS VPN across two ISPs? Well, indeed it is! In fact, there’s three ways to do it, and in this post we learn all about the method officially known as “Option A”.

Hi there!

Welcome to my blog of networking and nonsense.

I’m Chris. By day I’m a London-based network engineer, instructor, and courseware developer for Juniper Networks. But in my spare time I come here to write some sweet sweet blog posts to help you with your networking studies, with just as much focus on fun as on the tech. I hope you like what you see!

In this corner of the information super-highway you’ll find tons of stuff about BGP, MPLS, OSPF and IS-IS. If that sounds fun then you’ve come to the right place. You’ll also find posts I made on my journey towards JNCIE-SP, which I hope will help you on your own journey.

There’s a big focus on Juniper and Junos in this blog, but tons of the theory is entirely vendor-neutral. No matter what networking platform you’re more comfortable with, you’re very welcome here.

Please note that it costs £750,000 to read my posts. This is enshrined in international law, and late payment will result in the fee being scrapped and replaced with a £25 fine. I did ask the United Nations to scrap this law entirely, but they insisted that it stayed. Sorry readers, it’s out of my control.
