Hello Aws
A good place to start would be Cisco documentation that describes the feature and how to configure it. Take a look at the following:
> **[Cisco Nexus 3000 Series NX-OS Label Switching Configuration Guide, Release 7.x...](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus3000/sw/label_switching/7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_3000_Series_NX-OS_Label_Switching_Configuration_Guide_7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_3000_Series_NX-OS_Label_Switching_Configuration_Guide_7x_chapter_010.html)**
>
> Configuring Static
> MPLS
I suggest you go through this, and then if you have any more specific questions, we’d be happy to help you out!
I hope this has been helpful!

Hi
i did follow Cisco Guide to configure Static MPLS but it’s not working
```
mpls static configuration
address-family ipv4 unicast
local-label 100 prefix 192.168.20.0 255.255.255.255
next-hop 10.10.22.2 out-label 1000
show mpls switching
Legend:
(P)=Protected, (F)=FRR active, (*)=more labels in stack.
IPV4:
In-Label Out-Label FEC name Out-Interface Next-Hop
VRF default
100 Unknown 192.168.20.0/32 Unknown Unknown
```
and both switches are directly connected

Hello Aws
This is still not enough information to be able to help you. Some things that I would encourage you to check include:
1. have you enabled MPLS and MPLS static as features?
2. If you’re using NX-OS 7.0(3)I3(1) or later, use the **mpls ip forwarding** command to enable MPLS on the specific interface. For older versions, use the **mpls ip static command**.
3. Take a look at some of[the verification commands in the Cisco documentation](https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/switches/datacenter/nexus3000/sw/label_switching/7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_3000_Series_NX-OS_Label_Switching_Configuration_Guide_7x/b_Cisco_Nexus_3000_Series_NX-OS_Label_Switching_Configuration_Guide_7x_chapter_010.html#concept_FBC7A3F15CFE4765AAA5E4E9A6CF7F88) that can help you determine the current state of your static MPLS config.
I hope this has been helpful!
