Well, but I can see only the ICMP TTL exceeded coming back via
native (non-MPLS) forwarding, but I don't see the traceroute probes.
This is by "monitor traffic interface ge-0/0/0.100" which is the
interface both the LSP and native forwarding goes via.

Can you open a PR about that?

My comment regarding fxp0 was not regarding the traceroute stuff,
I just happened to noticed it when playing around with tcpdump
and forgetting to specify -i. I wondered why I don't see lots of
SSH traffic scrolling by. :-)

Nope.

fxp0 is just the management LAN in the lab here.

And as we all know, Olives don't exist. :-)
