VPN Label
Path Label
The originating PR device when announcing the VPN route to the rest of the network assigns the VPN label and announces it as part of the MP-BGP route announcement. The Label refers to the egress interface on the originating PR device the packet should be forwarded out. The originating PR device will perform a POP operation on any MPLS encapsulated packet received with a valid VPN Label A routing lookup is performed on the destination address of the inbound packet on the inbound PR in the VPN specific routing table to find the VPN Label
Provides a path from the Ingress PR device to the Egress PR device that originated the VPN route. All BGP routes have a next hop address
When the route lookup is performed to find the VPN Label a recursive lookup is performed on the next hop address and this will return the Path Label
This is derived from the RSVP TE Tunnel to reach the originating PR device

VRF
Holds routing and reachability information for the Customers VPN Could hold a subset of the routes within a VPN as apposed to all the routes
BGP with VPN extensions, is used to transfer routes and reachability information between VRFs on different PRs.
On export from a VRF the route is tagged with a BGP community which defines which VPN it belongs to, as well as the topology type (I.e. Full Mesh, Hub and Spoke, etc) The VPN extensions carry a VPN label to ensure packets are routed through the correct VRF.
