I’m building the Backbone for AS58299 based on a OSI-Layer-3 Core with MPLS. I’m presenting what I am planning and what has already been implemented. This is a talk about building an international Backbone on ISP Level, maing sure to avoid ususal issues like STP Fuckups, and similar 90% of my issues have been related to enabled STP and vlans crossing the whole backbone. This is in no way a “best practices guide” but more a presentation of my ideas how I want to build it. Subjects / Vendors covered?

IBGP
