Comparing 12.2.14S3 to 12.3.16, it doesn't look like we'd lose anything 
we use...except for this, which seems to be an error in FN version 
compare.

It says the following feature is unique to 12.2.14S3...but 12.3M does MPLS 
VPN, and we have at least one 7206 already running 12.3 code doing bgp 
with address-family vpnv4.

  Multi-protocol BGP (MP-BGP) - MPLS VPN
