From what I can see, none of the MPLS MIBs seem to acknowledge TTL. There's a couple of issues to address:

- what to do at the egress of a non-TTL capable link. (e.g. how much to decrement the value). This looks like an LSR-MIB "in-segment" table issue.

        That is true, but to-date, no neither the vendors implementing them nor the
SPs using them one has found it necessary to add them. What would you like to see?

- whether to use pipe or uniform model at an LSR ingress point
(which looks like it hits a bunch of places, FTN, MPLS-TE and LSR).

        I don't understand what you mean by a "pipe or uniform model" above.
