[dan] What I mean is in routing process, the lambda label will be presented, for example, lambda labels will be used to identify a lambda link. The identifier field in lambda label format is used to distinguish different lasers (in one node) when they can transmit the same frequency lambda. So the identifier itself may not be used in routing. But I think here we still can say the label format can be used in Signaling and Routing protocols.

[dan] Yes, you're correct!
