Entropy label (EL) can be used in the SR-MPLS data plane to improve load-balancing and multiple Entropy Label Indicator (ELI)/EL pairs may be inserted in the SR-MPLS label stack as per RFC8662. This document proposes a set of extensions for Path Computation Element Communication Protocol (PCEP) to configure the Entropy Label Positions (ELP) for SR-MPLS networks.
