Hi Kireeti, Just one clarification needed. Why not reserve label value in the range 0-15 in the extended label space ? Regards, Vivek Date: Wed, 13 Mar 2013 15:48:55 -0400 From: Kireeti Kompella <kireeti.kompella@gmail.com> To: mpls@ietf.org Subject: [mpls] Reserving extended special purpose labels Message-ID: <0B390473-1A62-48B5-B5CD-D727C5D96F28@gmail.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Hi All, In today's discussion, I noted the need to reserve (i.e., not allocate) some of the special purpose labels in the extended space. The primary reason to reserve special purpose label S is that an implementation interprets S independent of the preceding label; an example is the ELI. Please comment to the list or to an MPLS WG chair near you if you believe a label in the range 0-14 should be reserved in the extended special purpose label space. Thanks, Kireeti
