Hello Team
Please is TP an option on mikrotik any time soon?

Re: MPLS-TP
MPLS-TP is a very different concept. It often requires and specialized hardware and provisioning concepts to make any sense of it.
Re: MPLS-TP
What's the market share of MPLS-TP anyway? I have not seen it in production.MPLS-TP is a very different concept. It often requires and specialized hardware and provisioning concepts to make any sense of it.
Re: MPLS-TP
Well, It's often used as a replacement for legacy TDM-like tech, transporting synchronous and latency sensitive applications.
Re: MPLS-TP
Then safe to say MPLS-TP is also legacy. A lot of carriers have removed TDM/SDH/SONET type equipment and replaced with modern-day OTN.Well, It's often used as a replacement for legacy TDM-like tech, transporting synchronous and latency sensitive applications.
Even LTE/5G doesn't use TDM.
There's no reason for MikroTik to add this support. What we should see in 2023 from MikroTik is MPLS-EVPN.
Re: MPLS-TP
MPLS-TP is not legacy, but its a niche market.
Correct, there is no reason for Mikrotik to invest in MPLS-TP, since it requires specialized hardware to make any sense.

Re: MPLS-TP
How small is the market for this? What are some modern-day use-cases for it in carrier networks? I just can't think of any because of EVPN.MPLS-TP is not legacy, but its a niche market.
Re: MPLS-TP
No, it's mainly used for specialized industries like utilities, industrial, military and so on. When were are often talking Megabits but needs to be very reliable and ultra-fast recovery scenarios. But It could be used as a transport for legacy services on a bigger carrier operator. EVPN and MPLS-TP is very different things.
Yes, Mikrotik should definitely bet on EVPN and EVPN on their switches.

Re: MPLS-TP
Any example uses of MPLS-TP for Tier 1 carriers? It seems Ciena does deploy it in 2023 for large backbones?No, it's mainly used for specialized industries like utilities, industrial, military and so on.

Re: MPLS-TP
I don't work for a Tier 1 Carrier so I don't know. Yes, Ciena seems to offer it as a high-SLA metro-service concept
Re: MPLS-TP
I guess MPLS-TP makes sense for transport gear. Not networking gear. As it's 100% transport related tech and less of networking/packet switching.I don't work for a Tier 1 Carrier so I don't know. Yes, Ciena seems to offer it as a high-SLA metro-service concept
MikroTik doesn't sell transport gear, only networking gear, so definitely no sense for them to add it.
