"The DHCPv6 Relay component is enhanced to support a stateless Relay. Remote
Id and Interface Id options insertion is performed. DHCPv6 Relay now works
in conjunction with Prefix Delegation for adding or removing corresponding
routes in the Relay agent routing table."

"Software Features

With some exceptions, the virtual switching system has feature parity with
the standalone Catalyst 6500 series switch. Major exceptions include:

•The virtual switching system does not support MPLS or IPv6.

•In software releases earlier than Cisco IOS Release 12.2(33)SXI, port-based
QoS and port ACLs (PACLs) are supported only on Layer 2 single-chassis or
multichassis EtherChannel (MEC) links. Beginning with Cisco IOS Release
12.2(33)SXI, port-based QoS and PACLs can be applied to any physical port in
the VSS, excluding ports in the VSL. PACLs can be applied to no more than
2046 ports in the VSS.

•The virtual switching system does not support supervisor engine redundancy
within a chassis.

•The virtual switching system does not support Lawful Intercept."

Got to wonder whether VSS is going to make it or not...
