there is a typo....it should be "debug mpls lspv"

It's probably a sort of bug. But the solution is to use loopback interface to end xconnect tunnel instead of interface ip address. It is a fact that you should do that.

Can you show the output of "show mpls forwarding-table 10.27.118.181 detail" from ASR901?

Best Regards,

Thankyou for the answer bhnegi but I have delivered the solution and I cannot provide  more data now. 

Thankyou for your answer. Here is my answer.

"Normally a router will not assign label for locally configured address (though it have a /32 entry in table). Do you have 10.27.118.181  configured on router from where you executed LDP binding output?."

I omitted to say that the interface Port-channel 1.5 (10.27.118.181) is the termination of a EoMPLS tunnel (xconnect). I had the EoMPLS tunnel UP but without traffic forwarding. That's the reason why I checked out the LSP path with traceroute to find out the local loop in 7200. Probably the EoMPLS is the reason why there is a label for the FEC 10.27.118.181/32.   

"MPLS traceroute will show you each hop and the respective egress label. In your case, 10.100.100.1 appears to show that it will be using imp-null as egress label. I assume this is the previous hop to 7200. If so, the mpls forwarding table appears to be fine. While a local label of 170 is assigned, it should not affect anything. Also the destination address for mpls traceroute will not be the actual address. Instead it will be set to 127.0.0.0/8 range. So when 7200 receive it without any top label, it will not try to forward to ay other interface and should punt to CPU for packet processing.If the box is not in production, can you try enabling "debug mpls ldpv" on 7200 and try the trace again and share teh output?. "

You are right. The path  is  ASR901 (10.100.100.2) --->  ASR901 (10.100.100.1) ---> 7200 

Unfortunately the box is in production. 

Thankyou

Hi,

I omitted to say that the interface Port-channel 1.5 (10.27.118.181) is the termination of a EoMPLS tunnel (xconnect).

fDo you mean you have xconnect configured under port-channel1.5?. I still think it should not assign a local label for the address. 

Can you share a simple topology and configuration from 7200 and remote side router?. (xconnect terminating router).

Cisco 7200 is my PE. My WAN topology is basically a star.

The EoMPLS path is this one:

ASR901 (10.100.100.2) --->  ASR901 (10.100.100.1) ---> 7200

 I highlight a portion of the configuration of the router 7200:

interface Port-channel1.7            (1)
  description --- INCOMING SITE A —
  encapsulation dot1Q 9
  ip address 10.27.118.185 255.255.255.252       <--- No /32 label issue here
  no ip proxy-arp 
  ip virtual-reassembly
  end
!

interface Port-channel1.5    (2)
  description --- INCOMING SITE B ---
  encapsulation dot1Q 222

interface Port-channel1.8

  mpls ip
!

This can be useful for compare interfaces (1) and (2):

I hope it's of some help

ps. see above for the "debug mpls ldpv" output you asked me to do.
