[c-nsp] Recommended IOS for 6509 MSFC2 - MPLS, v6

[Paul Stewart]

That's kind of concerning if you ask me.... So is Sup2 support dead?  I
was reading the previous thread and am kind of concerned as we're
completely Sup2 based and don't need the horsepower of the Sup720 at
this point... There's no EOL posted or anything, and would hope that
their lifespan is going to be for quite some time...

Any info on this?

Thanks,

That "blows".  What about v6?  Doing a hardware upgrade is my least
likely option right now.
