That was my thinking. Unfortnately the Cisco Nexus guys have publicly stated
the C6K stays on IOS, Nexus with NX-OS. No plans to port.
Kind of crazy given that the Nexus doesn't look like much more than C6K++,
and the MDS is the C6K repurposed.
Oh well. Once the Nexus supports MPLS, maybe we'll start voting with our
wallets. That's really the only language Cisco listens to.
