I take it that you already configured 127.0.0.1 on the loopbacks which is required for MPLS ping to work on Junipers?

When we try to initiate MPLS ping from JNPR to JNPR through Cisco, the mpls ping fails. The reason is that JNPR is always setting IP TTL as 1. Since the Cisco is a penultimate node, it strips the label, decrement the IP TTL (to 0) and send the packet to JNPR. JNPR discards it since the IP TTL is 0. Does anyone know if there is any workaround to this? It looks to me that the only option is to try to set the IP TTL in MPLS ping from ingress JNPR to something > 0. Unfortunately there is no provision that would allow us to do this. On the other hand, Cisco won't honor 'no-ttl-decrement' statement on the penultimate if MPLS TTL is greater then the IP TTL (which currently is since JNPR MPLS TTL is set to 255).
