Funny was just working on this in the lab and I do not see the routes always
installed in the LFIB:

The topology is the below. I originate 100.100.100.16 from AS16 and it
reaches AS19.

R16-------eBGP+send-label----------R17-------IGP
BGP+send-label-----R18---------eBGP send-label--------R19
AS16
AS17
AS17 AS19
100.100.100.16

On R18 I see the label installed for 100.100.100.16

R18#show mpls for
Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes Label Outgoing Next Hop
Label Label or VC or Tunnel Id Switched interface
16 Pop Label 189.189.189.9/32 0 Fa1/1
189.189.189.9
17 Pop Label 100.100.100.17/32 0 Fa1/0
178.178.178.7
18 20 100.100.100.16/32 0 Fa1/0
178.178.178.7
19 Pop Label 100.100.100.19/32 0 Fa1/1
189.189.189.9

show ip bgp 100.100.100.16
BGP routing table entry for 100.100.100.16/32, version 2
Paths: (1 available, best #1, table Default-IP-Routing-Table)
  Advertised to update-groups:
     2
  16
    100.100.100.17 (metric 2) from 100.100.100.17 (100.100.100.17)
      Origin IGP, metric 0, localpref 100, valid, internal, best,
      mpls labels in/out 18/20
R18(config)#

However on R19 I receive the label via eBGP. However I do not install into
the
MPLS forwarding table but I do not know why ??

R19#show ip bgp 100.100.100.16
BGP routing table entry for 100.100.100.16/32, version 7

    189.189.189.8 from 189.189.189.8 (100.100.100.18)
      Origin IGP, localpref 100, valid, external, best,
      mpls labels in/out nolabel/18

R19#
R19#show mpls for
Local Outgoing Prefix Bytes Label Outgoing Next Hop

16 Pop Label 189.189.189.8/32 0 Fa1/0
189.189.189.8
