OK, I ping OLT from MX like you Saku wrote and i get information:

With JunOS, the size you specify on the ping command is actually the size
of the ICMP payload.  1472 of payload + 8 bytes of ICMP header + 20 bytes
of IP header results in a 1500 bytes IP packet, which is the largest packet
you can send without fragmentation.

When i ping OLT with 1500 I don't get respons. L2circuit/epipe is up, isis
adj is up. No every website work eg. ripe.net Where is the problem?
