6. IANA Considerations

   The ethertype value 8848 hex is used to indicate that a frame is
   carrying an MPLS multicast packet.

   These ethertype values can be used with either the ethernet
   encapsulation or the 802.3 LLC/SNAP encapsulation to carry labeled
   packets.  The procedure for choosing which of these two
   encapsulations to use is beyond the scope of this document.
