I dont think the ping implementation in MPLS domain is
any different in MPLS domain. I mean it is same number
IP-ICMP-data thing. The only difference you can call is that
a ping pkt is encapsulated with MPLS shim header in an
MPLS domain whereas normally in non-MPLS domain
there is no shim header. (as far as implementation is concerned
I dont think there is any difference). Also, because of this
shim header the max pkt size carried without fragmentation
also changes.

Please correct me if i m wrong :-))

Thanks & Regards
