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

[Paul Stewart]

Ahhh... I didn't realize the hardware wouldn't support these features
(aside from on the MSFC).. Makes a little more sense I guess...;)

Thanks,

Paul

Sup2 can not support MPLS or IPv6 in hardware. What is the point of
doing these features at MSFC speeds? I can tell you what happens if we
did support these, I would have lots of annoyed customers because they
can not even forward 1Gbps of IPv6 or MPLS traffic. Therefore we suggest
you use Sup720 PFc3b/3bXL for IPv6 and MPLS applications.
