Dear All,

I have been trying to do MPLS L2VPN Over GRE for few days. It is 
subinterface based l2vpn.

Below goes my Network senario.

             PC1(192.168.1.1/30)                                         
                                             PC2 (192.168.1.2/30) 
           


I am getting a weird problem.* *I can ping the VLAN network across  MPLS 
l2vpn i.e from PC1 to PC2  for about  5 to 7 minutes and it *stops 
automatically* and ever comes up back.

Everything else seems OK. mpls ldp neighbor, mpls  forwarding database, 
VCs status, GRE Tunnels, OSPF routes are all Ok even when i am unable to 
ping PCs.

I am using Cisco IOS 12.4-2(T) on the VXRs. Is there any BUG for Cisco 
IOS i am using. If so, please suggest me the bug free IOS for its 
implamentation.
                                               
'debug mpls l2trasport packets error' showed error report of  "*ATOM-Eth 
VLAN imposition: in Nu0, ciruit id 110 size 68 packet dropped, Fixup 
fauled*".
 But this report persists even when when i am able to ping PC1 to PC2 
(for 5 to 7 minutes)

My MPLS L2VPN is sub-interface based.

Any help in this regards  is highly appreciable.
