Ingress router will first identify the class of service (e.g. TOS bits
of IP header.) Ingress keeps the mapping of FEC/DS <-> in-label
/interface.

So when packet comes from H1, it extracts the FEC and checks for DS
bits. Searches for the entry in DS table and if it exists then gets a
pointer to the FECn <-> in-label/interface entry of NHLFE. Puts that
label and puts the packet on Tx (with respective priority) or to
respective interface.
