Kireeti Kompella, Juniper

Kireeti Kompella is a Distinguished Engineer at Juniper Networks. His current interests are all aspects of Multi-Protocol Label Switching, including traffic engineering, generalized MPLS, and MPLS applications such as VPNs. Kompella is active at the IETF, where he is a co-chair of the CCAMP Working Group and the author of several Internet-Drafts in the areas of IS-IS, MPLS, OSPF, PPVPN and TE. Previously, he worked in the area of file systems at Network Appliance and SGI.<BR> <BR> Kompella received his B.S. in EE and M.S. in C.S. at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur; and his Ph.D. in C.S. at the University of Southern California.
Abstract: This presentation considers whether service providers should roll out MPLS in their networks, and what questions they should ask in arriving at the answer. Kompella addresses commonly asked questions, such as \"What\'s the benefit of using MPLS vs. ATM?\", \"MPLS vs. IP?\" and \"Are the benefits of MPLS worth rolling out new protocols?\" He also suggests more fundamental questions that should be asked.
