 RFC 3032 (rfc3032) - MPLS Label Stack Encoding
Depending on the label value in the label stack entry, the packet MAY be simply discarded, or it may be passed to the appropriate "ordinary" network layer for error processing (e.g., for the generation of an ICMP error message, see section 2.3).
Bottom of Stack (S) This bit is set to one for the last entry in the label stack (i.e., for the bottom of the stack), and zero for all other label stack entries.
When copying the label stack from the original packet to the ICMP message, the label values must be copied exactly, but the TTL values in the label stack should be set to the TTL value that is placed in the IP header of the ICMP message.
