[Xiaohu] The FEC associated the above label L is the /32 or 128/ prefix of node N. When the IGP next-hop towards that FEC is a non-MPLS node, the LSR receiving the above MPLS packet with top label of L is desired to forward that MPLS packet towards node N via an IP-based tunnel. In this case, the node N is the remote peer for that FEC.
Yes, in this case, the tunnel's receive endpoint can be regarded as a remote label distribution peer of the tunnel's transmit endpoint.
However, in the above case I don't think it is obvious that you want to IP-tunnel the packet to N. You might just want to tunnel it around the non-MPLS node. In that case, the tunnel's receive endpoint can still be regarded as a remote label distribution peer of the transmit endpoint, but the receive endpoint is not N.
