Hi Leo
 
You can establish LSPs between routers with different L3 protocols. For eg. IPX, IPv6, AppleTalk etc..
No matter which L3 or L2 you are using, it works well. Hence it is Multi-Protocol

Which different networking protocols are you talking about ?

In the network which has different layer 3 protocols, is it possible to
establish LSPs betweent routers with these protocols? Or can we only use
multi-layered (hierarchial) labels?

Can MPLS be used to establish VPN tunnels to connect the sites which use
different layer 3 protocols?

Would you please give me you advice or recommend some documents?

Thanks a lot!
