Not a really a pop. The MPLS shim is an encapsulation since it’s sits between the L2 and L3 header. I think if we fix the verbiage and change from pop to remove we may want to come up with some other name like PSR & USR if “remove” was used. > > Brian > > _______________________________________________ > spring mailing list > spring@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/spring > -- Gyan S.
