Which of the following statements about Multi-Protocol Label Switching networks is FALSE?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The data is transparently carried from end to end: This statement is not true, MPLS does not provide data transparency, which means that the data is not carried unmodified from end to end. MPLS uses labels to forward data, so the original IP packets are encapsulated in new MPLS packets, and the original IP headers are not visible at the egress LSR.

LSRs definitely forward based on MPLS labels.

Wait, is it really bi-directional? That sounds off.

I think D is the false one. Data isn't always transparent.

MPLS does use a signaling protocol for labels.

I’m a bit confused about LSRs and how they forward data. I thought they used labels, but I can't recall if that's always the case.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I think D is actually true because MPLS is designed for end-to-end transparency.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like LSPs are usually uni-directional, which could make C false.

I think I remember that MPLS does use a signaling protocol, so A might be true.
