1 The outer MAC of the Ethernet packet that encapsulates an MPLS packet
2 Two MPLS labels deep
3 Based on LAG SAP parameters: service-id, lage_index, encap_value, service_vlan, sap_index, and number of active ports in the LAG. The hash function is implemented in the software and does not use hash-1 and hash-2 functions.
4 Used when the IP header follows the MPLS header
5 Outer MACs inside the payload just after the MPLS header
6 Three MPLS labels deep
7 Only applies if there are 3 or fewer MPLS labels when an IP header follows the MPLS header
8 Based on LAG SAP parameters: service-id, lage_index, encap_value, service_vlan, mgid, sap_index, and number of active ports in the LAG. The hash function is implemented in the software and does not use hash-1 and hash-2 functions.
9 Source and destination IPv6 addresses
