The above book is a fantastic book and I'd recommend it to
all.  Jim's earlier book was good also.

> 2. Layer 2 VPN Architectures by Wei Luo, -  CCIE No. 13,291, 
> Carlos Pignataro, -  CCIE No. 4619, Dmitry Bokotey, -  CCIE 
> No. 4460, Anthony Chan

This book is also a fantastic book although annoyingly doesn't cover
configs for the 7609 - which amazed me. [There are specifics around
the 720]

> 3. 
> Building MPLS-Based Broadband Access VPNsBy Kumar Reddy

Haven't read this.
