Operation Manual – MPLS Basics
H3C S9500 Series Routing Switches
A label value of 3 represents an implicit null label and never appears in the label
stack. When an LSR finds that it is assigned an implicit null label, it directly
performs a pop operation, rather than substitutes the value for the original label at
the stack top.
Follow these steps to configure PHP:
Enter system view
Enter MPLS view
Specify the egress to
support PHP and set the
type of the label to be
distributed to the
penultimate hop
1.6 Configuring a Static LSP
An LSP can be static or dynamic. A static LSP is manually configured, while a dynamic
LSP is established by MPLS LDP.
For a static LSP to work, all LSRs along the LSP must be configured properly.
Static LSPs can be used in MPLS L2VPN.
Note:
For configuration of MPLS L2VPN, refer to MPLS L2VPN Configuration in the MPLS
VPN Volume.
1.6.1 Configuration Prerequisites
Before configuring a static LSP, be sure to complete these tasks:
Determining the ingress, transit LSRs, and egress for the static LSP
Configuring MPLS basic capability on all the LSRs

Optional
By default, an egress
supports PHP and
distributes to the
penultimate hop an
implicit null label.
Note that you must reset
LDP sessions for the
configuration to take
effect.
