[c-nsp] Re: IPv6 Route "tag" attribute?

[Rodney Dunn]

CSCuk52253
Externally found moderate defect: Resolved (R)
IPv6 static route missing tag argument

I see where the confusion probably come in in regards to
12.2(25)S4. It looks like we missed the throttle build.

I haven't tried it but it does say there is a workaround:

<B>Symptom:</B>

Unable to set tag on IPv6 static route. Option is missing from CLI.

<B>Conditions:</B>

IPv6 configured on router.

<B>Workaround:</B>

A workaround for route redistribution purposes is to use a route-map to (a) match the static 
routes, and (b) set a tag. This will allow redistribution of the selected static routes with the 
specified tag.

<B>Further Problem Description:</B>
