To start off, mplsadm2 is used to configure static LSPs from the command line.
mplsadm2 has nothing to do with zebra.

The configuration of 'mplsd' is very similar to the rest of the zebra daemons.
If you are not familiar with zebra, head over to http://zebra.org/ to learn
more.

If you have the source to ldp-portable, take a look at README.zebra-ldp
for some more helpful hints.

If you are using mplsadm2 look in /proc/mpls_*
If you have installed the MPLS enabled version of iproute2, then you
can type 'ip route show' and the LSP index an index into the
/proc/net/mpls_out table.

if you are using 'mplsd' look at the 'show mpls *' commands.

I'm not understanding your question.
