Hi Krishnakanth,
Label values are of local significance only , limited significance between
the neighbour routers (LSRs). Hence, there may be same label values on two
different LSPs in the MPLS Domain.
Packets are classified into different FECs using a flow classifier e.g.
same source/destination IP addresses, and service types. (TCP port
numbers).

Subject: label values

1.Can label values in two different LSP's in an MPLS domain be the same.
2. How is packet classification achieved at the ingress router, and on
what basis are the packets classified into different
FEC's at the ingress router in an MPLS domain

thanks in advance

Krishnakanth
