For BGP LSPs, the mpls label advertise command takes effect only for the BGP LSPs established after the

command is executed. To apply the new setting to BGP LSPs established before the command is executed,
delete the routes corresponding to the BGP LSPs, and then redistribute the routes.

Configuration procedure

To specify the type of label that the egress node will advertise to the penultimate hop:

Step Command

Remarks

1.

Enter system view.

system-view

N/A

2.

Specify the label type

advertised by the egress to the
penultimate hop.

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

By default, an egress advertises an
implicit null label to the penultimate

hop.

Configuring TTL propagation

When TTL propagation is enabled, the ingress node copies the TTL value of an IP packet to the TTL field

of the label. Each LSR on the LSP decreases the label TTL value by 1. The LSR that pops the label copies

the remaining label TTL value back to the IP TTL of the packet, so the IP TTL value can reflect how many

hops the packet has traversed in the MPLS network. The IP tracert facility can show the real path along
which the packet has traveled.

Figure 6 TTL propagation

When TTL propagation is disabled, the ingress node sets the label TTL to 255. Each LSR on the LSP
decreases the label TTL value by 1. The LSR that pops the label does not change the IP TTL value when

popping the label. Therefore, the MPLS backbone nodes are invisible to user networks, and the IP tracert

facility cannot show the real path in the MPLS network.
