Try and convince yourself why you would need to add the send-label. See what you are doing and if you know that the next-hop prefixes already have a label through IGP/LDP or do you need to allocate labels for the EBGP prefixes, it really depends on your implementation just like Bryan said. If next-hop-self is used for EBGP prefixes than the next-hop address already has a label allocated through the IGP and LDP, so no then you don't need send-label.
Really convince yourself of doing something, rather than doing a 'best practice'. See how the LSP works and how things are allocated. -- Regards, Rick Mur CCIE2 #21946 (R&S / Service Provider) Sr. Support Engineer – IPexpert, Inc.
