Additional fields:
–
Up to three incoming MPLS labels with experimental bits and an end-of-stack bit
–
Positions of the three labels in the label stack
Note
Unlike NetFlow, MPLS-Aware NetFlow reports a 0 value for IP next-hop, source and destination BGP
autonomous system numbers, or source and destination prefix masks for MPLS packets.

Note
If you are exporting MPLS data to a NetFlow collector or a data analyzer, the collector must support
NetFlow Version 9 flow export format, and you must configure NetFlow export in Version 9 format on
