Sanjay,
    Additionally you can refer to  RFC 3032 (MPLS Label Stack Encoding) to
get specific details on how to encode a packet in order to transmit it over
a PPP data link.

MPLS over POS falls into Frame-mode MPLS (just like Ethernet, Frame-Relay,
and PPP).  Yes.  It uses the MPLS Shim header.  Check Jim Guichard and Ivan
Pepelnjack's book by Cisco Press for some good information on the
differences between frame-mode and cell-mode MPLS.

Where can i find information on MPLS over POS?
Is it an extention of IP over POS using PPP encapsulation with MPLS shim
between PPP header and IP header?
Please let me know.
