For a more detailed description of the Cisco ANA NetworkVision window, menus, and toolbars, and working with tables, see the Cisco Active Network Abstraction 3.6.6 User Guide.

Supported MPLS and VPN Technologies and Routing Protocols

Cisco ANA supports the following technologies:

MPLS.

Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) including route reflector scenarios.

Layer 3 BGP MPLS VPNs as defined in RFC2547.

Label Distribution Protocol (LDP).

Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP).

Cisco IGRP.

Extended IGRP.

Pseudowire end-to-end emulation tunnels as defined in RFC3985 and implemented for Cisco Any Transport over MPLS (AToM). Pseudowire support is based on the Luca Martini drafts (draft-martini-l2circuit-encap-mpls-03.txt and draft-martini-l2circuit-trans-mpls-07.txt).

Note Cisco ANA supports payload types packet and cell only. For more information, see RFC3985, Section 3.3.

MPLS traffic engineering based on RFC2702 with Resource Reservation (RSVP) protocol for signaling as described in RFC3209.
