Abstract:
In addition to being used for forwarding, an MPLS label stack may
also be used as an entropy source to perform load balancing
computation in various ways. RFC 4928 and RFC 6790 describe this
mechanism in great detail. However, those two RFCs differ in the use
of MPLS special purpose labels (previously referred to as "reserved
labels") for computation of load balancing. This document restricts
the use of MPLS special purpose labels for computation of load
balancing, clarifying the difference in specifications.
This document updates RFC 4928 and RFC 6790.
