    abstract =  {The MPLS label stack has no explicit protocol identifier field to indicate the protocol type of the MPLS payload. This document proposes a mechanism for containing a protocol identifier field within the MPLS packet, which is useful for any new encapsulation header (e.g., INT metadata) which may need to be encapsulated with an MPLS header.},
