Hello, Hill

I didn't test it myself but when I talked to Juniper the other day
about per-LSP monitoring issue within MPLS VPN, they recommended put
the MPLS-VPN on top of MPLS-TE, in another words, they claimed that
by can put each VPN-LSP into individually configured MPLS-TE.

Best regards,
Franklin
