    - The generic MPLS header has the following fields:

      1. Label
      2. QoS
      3. S-field
      4. TTL

    - In MPLS (Multi Protocol Label Switching) method, a label is added in front of each packet and the routing is done on the basis of this label instead of the destination address.

    - It helps to find the correct output line by referring the table. It makes the routing quick.

    - MPLS acts as an index into an internal table.

    - Label is a 20 bit field which holds the index.

    - QoS (Quality of Service) is a 3 bit field which indicates the class of service.

    - S-field is a 1 bit field which relates to stacking of multiple labels in the hierarchical networks. If S-field hits a 0 , then packet is discarded.

    - TTL (Time to Live) is a 8 bit field that signifies the time that a packet still has before its life ends and is dropped. This ensures that packets do not live forever when entering and leaving the MPLS if there is a routing loop.
