MPLS IDS question

["Pierre A. Cadieux" <hobbit () theshire com>]

Hello List,

I was wondering if anyone has yet had the pleasure of rolling out an IDS to 
an MPLS environment?

At this point it looks as if MPLS is one of the networking directions being 
used within my work environment, and I was hoping that someone has already 
tackled or at least identified any issues that should be considered when 
planning IDS deployment to monitor MPLS.

I am not an MPLS expert, so just getting started with understanding what it 
is and does/does not provide as far as complexity.

Any insight is appreciated.
