Dear MPLS Community:

Please consider the following simple but strange scenario.
Lets say we have two directly connected PEs. Traffic is flowing from CE1 to CE2. According to VRF table entry on PE1, for destination CE2 bottom label is "X" and top label is "Y". And, we are doing penultimate-hop-popping (PHP) for the LSP between PE1 and PE2.


                            LSP
                       ========>
[CE1]------[PE1]-----------------[PE2]------[CE2]


So, my question is who does push and who does pop here? Will top label "Y" be ever used in this scenario?

Thanks for your response,
Sachin Kalra
