About the Non-compliant Routers in MPLS PING and MPLSTRACEROUTE(Y.17fw)

In appendix 4: Diagnostic tools,it states that,

When we execute MPLS PING or MPLS TRACEROUTE, If the egress LSR for the FEC
Stack being pinged does not support MPLS ping, then no LSP-PING reply will
be sent.  If in trace mode, a transit LSR does not support MPLS ping, then
no reply will be forthcoming from that LSR for some TTL, say n.

Under such circumstance,how I distinguish the scenario that there is
something wrong along the LSP from the scenario that there is Non-compliant
Routes along the LSP .i.e. if the PING dosen't work,how do I know if it is
because the existence of the non-compliant Routes?

What is your consideration?


Sincerely Yours
