 * A path extension is a per-entry addition to the forwarding information

 * For example:
 *    ip route add 1.1.1.1/32 via 10.10.10.10 out-label 100
 *
 * The out-going MPLS label value 100 is a path-extension. It is a value sepcific
 * to the entry 1.1.1.1/32 and valid only when packets are sent via 10.10.10.10.
