```auto PE1#show mpls forwarding-table 7.7.7.7 detail Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes Label Outgoing Next Hop Label Label or Tunnel Id Switched interface 24 Pop Label 7.7.7.7/32 0 Tu1 point2point ``` The above shows label 24, but this result shows label 26. ```auto PE1#traceroute 7.7.7.7 source Loopback 0 numeric probe 1 Type escape sequence to abort. Tracing the route to 7.7.7.7 VRF info: (vrf in name/id, vrf out name/id) 1 192.168.23.3 [MPLS: Label 26 Exp 0] 4 msec 2 192.168.36.6 4 msec 3 192.168.67.7 6 msec ``` And I find the same thing in my GNS3 lab. The actual MPLS label is not the label shown by command "`show mpls forwarding-table 7.7.7.7 detail` ". Can you please explain why? Thanks. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.networklessons.com/t/mpls-te-static-routes/33683)._
