Why Is MPLS Segment Routing Better than LDP?
A while ago I made a statement along the lines of “MPLS segment routing is the best thing that happened to MPLS control plane in a decade”. Obviously some MPLS-focused engineers disagree with that and a few years ago I decided to write a lengthy blog post explaining the differences between using MPLS SR with IGP (or BGP) versus more traditional IGP+LDP approach.
Obviously, I wasn’t making any progress on that front, so the only way forward was to record a short video on the topic which didn’t work well either because the end-result was a set of three videos (available with free or paid ipSpace.net subscription).
However, if you have a problem of that size, you might get better results by involving someone who did it before as opposed to collecting random tidbits from blogs and videos :D

#1: Obviously you found them, so that’s not a big deal (and I prefer having an intelligent conversation with fellow engineers over vanity metrics anyway)
#2: When you figure out how to make Big Bucks with niche technology videos please let me (and dozens of others) know. There’s a bit of a difference between spouting opinions and nonsense and getting millions of followers and creating technical content that gets a few hundred views.
#3: What happened to “I liked them” or “You got it all wrong” or whatever instead of complaining about your pet inconvenience?
Enjoy the weekend! Ivan
