Hi Nat,

Please read https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc8491#section-5
Currently defined MSD types are:
1: BMI
2: ERLD

Specifically to BMI:
Base MPLS Imposition MSD (BMI-MSD) signals the total number of MPLS labels that can be imposed, including all service/transport/special labels.
The answer to your question is 6

Cheers,
Jeff
