[c-nsp] ME3400 & IPv6

[Munroe, James (DSS/MAS)]

Here is what I got from Cisco:

Yes, IPv6 will be enabled in hardware and is supported on both the ME-3400E and ME-3400.

Will support RIP for IPv6 (RIPng),IPv6 ACL, DHCPv6 Individual Address Assignment, IPv6 Neighbor Discovery (RFC 2461), IPv6 CEFv6 Switching (RFC2460, RFC2461), IPv6 Routing-Unicast Routing: (RFC2460), IPv6 Routing: OSPF for IPv6 (OSPFv3) RFC2740, IPv6 Static Routing, IPv6 Routing and Management, IPv6 RIPing, IPv6 OSPF, IPv6 Unicast/CLI show/ debug, IPv6 EIGRP, Stateless Auto Config - part of Neighbor Discover, Default Router Preference, Ipv6 HOST functions - Part of the Ipv6 Routing 

Unfortunately I need VRF-Lite support with IPv6 which is not in this release :-(

Hope this helps...

Jim

Could it be IPv6 control-plane support but not forwarding support ?

As for IPv6 on the ME-3400, I wonder if it will be hardware (Mpps) or software (kpps) support... ME-3400E most likely has IPv6 hardware forwarding, but as for the ME-3400, it might not.
