Chapter 10. BGP and MPLS in an OSPF Network
If you would make a man happy, do not add to his possessions but subtract from the sum of his desires.
—Seneca
This chapter describes the interaction between OSPF and BGP. Why include coverage of BGP in an OSPF book? What do they have to do with each other? The answer is more complicated than you might expect.
This chapter also covers some of the new capabilities and evolving extensions of OSPF as it grows to embrace new technologies such as MultiProtocol Label Switching (MPLS).
