[c-nsp] cannot ping MLPPP local IP address

Hi Alex,

Yes, I did extended ping, but the result was the same.

The local MLPPP IP is on the same subnet as the remote IP,
and the route is in the routing table. So it's <supposed to> work.

This behavior is not observed in a Juniper router with 
similar configuration. So I thought it's something specific to Cisco.

Are you inadvertently pinging it from a default source interface that 
cannot route to that IP address due to access lists, route maps, etc?

Try "extended ping" options and specify your source address explicitly.
