Hi Saku, I see, as the Cisco mpls label sec checks only the top-most label we have to make sure the topmost label is indeed the VPN label which applies only to opt.B with direct link peering and explicit null sig. scenario and possibly it could work in Option C where the PE (acting as ASBR&Inter-AS-RR) BGP-peers with CE via a direct link so that there is just the VPN label in the label stack. Or am I getting it wrong?
