Label Switching Router
<networking> (LSR) A device that typically resides somewhere in the
middle of a network and is capable of forwarding datagrams based upon a label.
In many cases, especially early versions of MPLS networks, a LSR will typically
be a modified ATM switch that forwards datagrams based upon a label in the
VPI/VCI field.
