This read-only counter reports the number of octets of transit traffic, originated on a different router but forwarded through this box, over the current LDP FEC. Admins use it to distinguish traffic this router is merely forwarding through the LSP from traffic it originated itself, jnxLdpIngressOctets, useful for capacity planning on transit routers in the LSP path. A jnxLdpTransitOctets value far larger than jnxLdpIngressOctets for the same FEC would tell the admin this router is mostly acting as a mid-path transit hop for that LSP rather than a traffic source.
