[c-nsp] Cisco 7600 pseudowire ping

[Ivan]

Interesting enough regular mpls ping has no issue:

PE1#ping mpls ipv4 172.16.14.1/32 repeat 100
Sending 100, 100-byte MPLS Echos to 172.16.14.1/32,
      timeout is 2 seconds, send interval is 0 msec:

Codes: '!' - success, 'Q' - request not sent, '.' - timeout,
   'L' - labeled output interface, 'B' - unlabeled output interface,
   'D' - DS Map mismatch, 'F' - no FEC mapping, 'f' - FEC mismatch,
   'M' - malformed request, 'm' - unsupported tlvs, 'N' - no label entry,
   'P' - no rx intf label prot, 'p' - premature termination of LSP,
   'R' - transit router, 'I' - unknown upstream index,
   'X' - unknown return code, 'x' - return code 0

Type escape sequence to abort.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (100/100), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms

PE1#ping mpls pseudowire 172.16.14.1 440 repeat 100
Sending 100, 100-byte MPLS Echos to 172.16.14.1,
      timeout is 2 seconds, send interval is 0 msec:

Codes: '!' - success, 'Q' - request not sent, '.' - timeout,
   'L' - labeled output interface, 'B' - unlabeled output interface,
   'D' - DS Map mismatch, 'F' - no FEC mapping, 'f' - FEC mismatch,
   'M' - malformed request, 'm' - unsupported tlvs, 'N' - no label entry,
   'P' - no rx intf label prot, 'p' - premature termination of LSP,
   'R' - transit router, 'I' - unknown upstream index,
   'X' - unknown return code, 'x' - return code 0

Type escape sequence to abort.

Success rate is 94 percent (94/100), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms

And the rate-limit output on the destination:

PE2#show mls rate-limit | in Rate|On|UCAST
    Rate Limiter Type       Status     Packets/s   Burst  Sharing
         MCAST DFLT ADJ   On              100000     100  Not sharing

              IP ERRORS   On                 100      10  Group:0 S

As mentioned before we are only seeing this on devices where we are 
running 15.2(4)S4a

Thanks
