The MPLS Forwarding table is the LFIB as it's generated from the FIB and LIB. This table will be pushed to CEF which is the actual forwarding process. Notice that this SHOULD always be the same! The CEF table is what packets use when they traverse the router to perform a lookup, so if there is something not correct between the CEF and MPLS FOrwarding-table, than you might run into problems.
Again, these outputs should be 100% the same in terms of label allocation, but it's a different process. -- Regards, Rick Mur CCIE2 #21946 (R&S / Service Provider) Sr. Support Engineer – IPexpert, Inc.
