Abstract:
   [RFC6391] describes a mechanism that uses an additional label (Flow
   Label) in the MPLS label stack that allows Label Switch Routers to
   balance flows within Pseudowires at a finer granularity than the
   individual Pseudowires across the Equal Cost Multiple Paths (ECMPs)
   that exists within the Packet Switched Network (PSN).

   Furthermore,[RFC6391] defines the LDP protocol extensions required to
   synchronize the flow label states between the ingress and egress PEs
   when using the signaling procedures defined in the [RFC4447].

   This draft defines protocol extensions required to synchronize flow
   label states among PEs when using the BGP-based signaling procedures
   defined in [RFC4761].  These protocol extensions are equally
   applicable to point-to-point L2VPNs defined in [RFC6624].
