Abstract
This document describes a mechanism of using concept of Domain Wide MPLS Labels in parallel with any of the existing deployments using other label distribution and allocation methods where multi protocol label switching paradigm is used for transport. Specifically it defines a new type of context label which can be used to differentiate lookup tables when using Domain Wide transport Labels from other downstream or upstream assigned transport labels. The end result is creation of clean new label space in data plane allowing very easy and smooth migration to the number of applications choosing to use Domain Wide MPLS Labels.
