Which MPLS plane is responsible for packet forwarding?
A.
packet plane
B.
control plane
C.
routing plane
D.
forwarding plane
Explanation:
MPLS compliments IP technology. It is designed to leverage the intelligence associated with IP Routing, and the Switching paradigm associated with Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM). MPLS consists of a Control Plane and a Forwarding Plane. The Control Plane builds what is called a "Forwarding Table," while the Forwarding Plane forwards packets to the appropriate interface (based on the Forwarding Table).
