Label Advertise; Label-Distribution - HP 5800 series Command Reference Manual

label advertise

Description
Use the label advertise command to specify what type of label the egress should distribute to the
penultimate hop.
Use the undo label advertise command to restore the default.
By default, the egress distributes an implicit null label to the penultimate hop.
The type of label for an egress to distribute depends on whether the penultimate hop supports PHP. If the
penultimate hop supports PHP, you can configure the egress to distribute the explicit null or implicit null
label to the penultimate hop. If the penultimate hop does not support PHP, you need to configure the
egress to distribute a normal label.
If LDP sessions have been established, you need to use the reset mpls ldp command to reset the sessions
to bring the label advertise command into effect.

label advertise { explicit-null | implicit-null | non-null }
