Label Value: 3 Implicit Null — Used by the last hop (tail) node of the LSP to signal the Penultimate Hop Popping (PHP) behavior. When the LSP’s penultimate hop (second to last hop) receives a label mapping of 3, it will not put the label value into the MPSL packets to send to the tail node. Instead, the penultimate hop router pops up the label for the tail node. An MPLS data packet ingress to a node with label value 3 should never exist.
